Orbi and Airplay issue with Marantz SR7009 receiver
I'm having an issue with my marantz receiver and the Orbi RBR/RBS50. The receiver is hardwired to the Orbi and is set with a static IP. If I reboot the receiver, airplay will work for a short time but then will not be visible from any devices. The only solution is to reboot the receiver again. Are there any special settings or ports that I need to enable to get this to work correctly? The receiver experienced no issues with my previous airport extreme so I know it works fine, just must be a configuration issue with the Orbi. Thank youJust set up ORBI system and cannot connect printers wirelessly
Hello, I recently switched from a Nighthawk wireless router to an ORBI system to get more coverage around my home. The ORBI has been great for extending coverage. Before switching to ORBI I had two printers an Epson WP-4540 connected wirelessly and accessable to everyone via wireless or wired connection. The second printer was a brother HL 5250DN whcih was connected via ethernet and accessable to anyone from a wireless or wird connection. Everyone is running Mac laptops, multiple iPads, iPhones and we have two wired iMac desktops. After installing ORBI no one could connect to any printers via wired or wireless connection. I had connected to brother printer to the ORBI router. The Epson was still setup as wireless. I reset epson to factory settings and I could not set it up to connect to the ORBI network as it always saw the router and satellites as separate SSID's with the same name. Tried resetting, new drivers, firmware, etc..and no luck. Finally set it up via ethernet off of a switch and I can now connect to it from my wired computers but not wireless. When attemting to connect via wireless the printer shows as offiline. The Brother printer will not connect at all either wireless or wired. The printer is seen on the network but the printer always shows as offline. Tried resetting, new firmware, drivers, etc...no luck. Finally, needed a printer that worked and disconnected ORBI and set the system back up with the old Nighthawk wireless router. I can now connect to the epson via wired or wireless. Not sure where to go from here, return the ORBI? Thanks MikeNot getting a strong 5ghz signal from Orbi
I have an Orbi pair with RBR50 and RBS50. The Guest wifi is booming through at 5GHz but the private wifi seems to be weak in areas. Having done some analysis it seems as though one of the units isn't transmitting the private network on 5GHZ as can be seen from the attached picture (Guest network seen at -46dB [Strong] and -78dB [Medium] but Home only seen at -77dB [Medium]). You can see that all signals are visible at 2.4GHz. Does anyone have any ideas? Yours, TomPLP 1200 not working on PC
I have just had this issue with my new PLP1200 I bought a month ago. The lower led (Pick A Plug LED) varies from On to Green but doesn't let my PC connect via ethernet. I have the other Adapter set at the Modem and this other one connected to my PC. I have tried Factory Reset, many many IpConfig solutions I have found online, but none seems to have worked. The problem solver does nothing (as always) and it still says Unidentified Network - No Internet AccessLosing Wireless Connectivity
Hello guys, So basically the first few days the Orbi system worked just fine. But now I'm losing the connection every 1/2 hrs. I'm connected via Lan-Cable to my PS4. I don't know if it has something to do with my issue but when I was only using the laptop and my iPhone everything worked fine. I did not change any settings etc. Once I lose connection the router is pulsing white and sometimes it's just solid white. Then it turns blue and everything works again. Any ideas how I could solve this? I don't want my router to lose connection. Especially when I'm playing online games.
