Upgrading to 870 from RBR53 (Orbi AC3000 )
My current router is now considered EOL so looking to move to a Orbi 870. I'm wondering if it is possible to export the configuration from the old router and import it to the new one? I know a lot has changed, but it'd make configuration easier. Thanks in advance.Attached Devices list shows for about a day then is not available on web app for RBE871
Hi, The Attached Devices list shows for about a day then is not available on web app for RBE871. I do a reboot then the attached devices show again for about a day.

Everything else works great - i get great internet all around/outside the house. Its just the attached device list issue- Thanks!Netgear Orbi 870 slow to stream from NVME SSD NAS
Hi Friends. I am a Netgear Orbi Newbie. I have just recently bought the 3 pack Orbi 870. I live in Perth, Australia. I upgraded from a much older system that did not allow me to stream 4K video from my QNAP SSD NVME harddrive to my computer. it was too slow. However, its still slow even with this upgrade. HOw do i fExtending Orbi RBE 871 system
I have the RBE 871 router with three 870 satellites. It works fine, but the devices farthest away - outdoor cameras - have the weakest connections. I'd rather not pay for yet another satellite, and am wondering if the Netgear Range Extenders would work for me. I see several on Amazon: EXS25, EAX15, EAX12, EX6120 ... any advice on which one would work best with my existing mesh system? Thanks in advance.Device blocking does not work on 870
I have an 870 system with router firmware V10.5.20.4_1.3.5. Device blocking does not work properly. The only time it worked is when I set a device to be blocked and happen to restart the router. When I went to unblock it, I also had to restart the router for that to work. In the web UI, nothing works at all. I browse to Advanced >> Security >> Access Control. When I select a device and hit "Block" I get a pop-up that says "Do you really want to block access to selected device(s)?" I hit OK and then the page reloads and the same exact device still says "Allowed" next to it. In the iOS app, the device will turn red but that is not reflected in the UI and has no affect. When I inspect what is happening with dev tools, I see a HTTP POST request to /dniapi/accessControl with the following payload: acl_enable=1&acl_default_policy=allow&display_allow_no_connect_sta=&display_block_no_connect_sta=&sub_list%5Bindex%5D=0&sub_list%5Bdevice_name%5D=&sub_list%5Bmac_addr%5D=&sub_list%5Bacl_strategy%5D=&sub_list%5Btype%5D=add&acl_strategy=0&action=save Here is a pretty format: acl_enable: 1 acl_default_policy: allow display_allow_no_connect_sta: "" display_block_no_connect_sta: "" sub_list: index: 0 device_name: "" mac_addr: "" acl_strategy: "" type: add acl_strategy: 0 action: save Then the UI does a GET request to get the device list and my device still has: "acl_strategy": "allow", in the JSON response. Having to reboot the router for these settings to work is a subpar experience. Is this a known bug or is there a workaround without having to reboot the router to block and un-block devices?Share your Orbi BE370/770/870/970 Series System UpTime
Found on the RBR and RBS IP address/debug.htm web page for best details, please post both RBR and RBS uptime. Please note of any inconsistencies between the RBR and RBS. Generally the RBR and RBS uptime should be same. Home wide power brown outs should be noted if these are seen. Thank you.The satellite in question is one floor below ~25 feet away
Curious if anyone still gets this issue. I have orbi 870. The satellite in question is one floor below ~25 feet away. I know the suggestion is +30 but this is where it has to go for now. It oscillates between good and poor although no noticeable performance issues when it says poor. That said, it's driving me crazy!Help save my marriage 🤣
Heys guys Sky Q Sky hub 4.2 orbi rbr850 with 2 satellites. so I’ve tried to get this working myself but the tech terminology has me frazzled. As sky doesn’t allow bridge mode I put my Orbi in AP mode and turned off the WiFi on sky hub. Now I get full signal but internet very slow to load any webpage,YouTube etc it works but so slow. i have 3 gamers in the house and finding great difficulty getting access to play games online. i followed a few videos to open ports but I must’ve done something wrong along the way. i want to test it out tonite and was thinking a factory reset of sky hub and Orbi would be best as fresh install. anyone have any tips of step by step guide to get this up and running properly. i have 2 satellites and one is hard wired and other is upstairs and has good wireless bakhaul. i can provide screens of my setup if that helps? The wife is getting agitated so help is greatly appreciated thanks guys Dave
