Orbi not connecting to internet
Hi guys, I have a problem connecting to internet with my new Orbi set. Setting up wifi was a breeze, I can acces the admin on the Orbi using WiFi, but getting internet access seems not possible. I use a Huawei DSL router model HG659 (Vodafone internet, Netherlands). I have disabled the WiFi on the Huawei router, but the Orbi will not connect automatically to internet. I think I should use AP mode (instead of router since I already have one) on the Orbi and I tried this setting too, but no luck: if I select this mode, I can no longer connect to the Orbi through WiFi. After using a pin to push the reset button I can access the Orbi again, and have to start over. Frustrating!!! Any tips for a struggling home owner?
