Problem with Remote Management on Orbi RBR50

Hi

 I'm using the Orbi RBR50 system and I'm really happy with it. But when I want to enable the Remote Management in the Orbi app, I get this message: "This NETGEAR device is already registered with another account".  I really don't understand why it says that, because I'm using only 1 account on Netgear. Can someone help me please? Thanks for your time! Rob

 

I use the RBR50 with firmware V2.1.4.16

Where did you get the Orbi from? New or used?

I would contact NG support and get there help on this...they'll need to help you get it registered correctly.

Hello FURRYe38

 

Thanks for your reply.

I would like to do that, but my 90 days support had expired. I just recently found out that this doesn't work...

I would contact one of the forum moderators on there and see if they can point you in a right direction.

I’m in the same boat as above... new Orbi in September... just getting around to enabling remote management, but can’t because of the device/account association issue.  Phone support is now expired.  Any leads on how I can get this resolved?

I  gave up on this issue. They called me and they didn't have the solution and said they will call me back because they had to ask a collegue. Never heard anything afther this... After a few weeks they replied with the question why they didn't hear from ME anymore? After that I was done with it.
