1 TopicOrbi and Cable Modem/Wifi Router
I'm interested in purchasing the Orbi System but have a couple of questions. My ISP provides a Modem/Wifi Router. I use it as a single gateway to hardwire devices and use the two bands, 5G and 2G for wireless signals. When using the Orbi system should the Wifi on the ISP Modem be disabled? If not disabled, will broadcasting the networks degrade signal for the Orbi. If I have multiple devices hardwired to the Modem is it best to hardwire into the Orbi vs the Modem/Wifi Router? Sorry a newbie a this so trying to learn which may be basics. Thanks
