Is the SXR80 / SXS80 can really work in AP mode?

[mcnahum]

I decided to upgrade my network with a UDM PRO

My DHCP and DNS are managed by a Pi-hole

If I’m trying to setup the SXR80 as AP … it’s not reachable at all after a reboot.

I tried with a fixed IP, on DHCP .. it’s always the same, the device is not reachable.

If I factory reset it, it’s ok but I cannot move to AP mode.

I tried to connect the WAN port of the SXR80 to the UDM Pro … but not it’s not working … any idea?

Hi mcnahum,

Welcome to our community! 🙂

It seems that you are having issues setting up the Orbi Pro to AP mode. May you be able to provide us some screenshots in order for us to check it?
