Stuck at no internet connection
I’ve been trying to help my dad set up his Orbi system but I keep getting stuck at the exact same point. The model number, I believe, is RBK652S, but I may well be looking at the wrong thing. On the advanced setup page it talks about checking that your wifi IP address is the right kind and I did and it is, and I know that the Ethernet ports on the modem work otherwise. The orbits router just absolutely refuses to connect at this point. Any thoughts?RS280S: Problems with Serviio & Roku Media Player.
Both Items in subject work fine in my old router R6900, but not with the RS280S. I can get a WIFI and hardwired signal to the destination (blueray player), but cannot stream anything. The Serviio status page rarely shows the correct IP it should connect to and when it does unrecognized is shown. Roku works but not the Roku media player. I have been trying to fix this for months with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.Any updates on guest network in AP mode
Hi, understand that Routers in AP mode in the past, that Guest network does not isolate from local network. Just wondered if this has been changed now as I have a spare Netgear RAX10 that is going to be use as a AP over a wifi bridge to my sons house and wanted to isolate his children to guest network only but his cable access needs local network access etc for Plex. thanksRBS350 ethernet problem
I have an RBS350 satellite which disconnects from the router when I plug something into the ethernet port. The system has an RBR350 router connected via its WAN port to the internet. There are 2 RBS350 satellites using wireless backhaul. If I plug an access point into the satellite ethernet port then that satellite disconnects from the router. It doesn't always happen straight away, but after a power failure I always need to power off the satellite and access point, then power up the satellite and then the access point in that order. I guess it thinks that the access point ethernet is actually a wired backhaul? Is there a way for force an RBS350 to use wireless backhaul, even if it thinks wired is available? Kevin[HELP] SXS50 satellite not pairing as mesh unit after factory reset – tried everything
Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 kit (SXR50 router + SXS50 satellite) and after a factory reset of the satellite, it refuses to reconnect as a mesh unit. It only connects as a wired client when plugged in via ethernet. My setup: Router: SXR50, firmware 4.3.2.200, IP 192.168.1.233 Satellite: SXS50, MAC 34:98:b5:a7:b0:61 Background: The router and satellite were purchased as a kit and worked correctly together for a long time. After performing a factory reset on the satellite, the mesh pairing was lost and I haven't been able to restore it. What I've tried: Factory reset of the satellite (multiple times) Sync button method on both router and satellite Connected satellite via ethernet cable for an extended period to allow firmware sync Updated router firmware to 4.3.2.200 Tried adding satellite via the + wizard on orbilogin.com Tried adding satellite via the Orbi Pro app What happens: With ethernet cable connected: satellite shows a blue light and appears in the network topology as a regular client (Type: Client, interface LAN2) — not as a satellite Without ethernet cable: satellite shows a magenta light and cannot establish a wireless mesh connection The Satellites page in both the web interface and the app consistently shows "No Satellite available" My question: Is there any way to re-pair the SXS50 as a mesh satellite to the SXR50 after a factory reset? It seems like the mesh configuration is lost and the normal pairing methods aren't working. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
