TV box needs direct internet access - can I still use netgear orbi in between?
Hi,
I have an netgear Orbi router and a TV box. As I only have a single RJ45 internet connection cable (long story), I would like to connect the Orbi to that and the TV box to the orbi. However, the TV box needs direct internet access; cannot be behind the router. At the same time, I would like to avoid an "access point" for all my other devices.
Is it possible to configure the Orbi to be an access point only for the TV box and a router for all other devices?
Thanks for any advice.
