ORBI RBK50 in AP mode
Hi
Have bought the starter kit. I have multiple network equipment and decided to run it in AP mode. Both devices get an ip adresse, but I am only able to connect to the satelite? If I reboot both devices, I am able to connect to the router, but after the satelite connects to the router, I am unable to connect to the router, only the satelite.
Very strange. Any input?

Re: ORBI RBK50 in AP mode
When you say you cant connect do you mean with wifi or connect to the Orbi with a browser ?.
I assume you can connect to the router (orbilogin.com) with a browser and it is showing that everything is ok, the sat is connected etc.
If the router and sat are close enough, some devices will contine to latch onto the access point that they last connected to even if there is a better one closer to it. Try getting the test device to forget the Orbi wifi connection once the router and sat are both up and then see what the device does when you connect to the Orbi SSID when you are in closer proximity to the router.

Re: ORBI RBK50 in AP mode
Very strange.
When connected with ethernet, I am able to connect to admin page
When connected on 2,4 Ghz it also works
When connected on 5Ghz it doesn`t work, then I am not even able to ping the Router
Are running the latest FW (Beta), to see if it will fix the disconnect issues

Re: ORBI RBK50 in AP mode
Do you still have the wireless enabled on your main router that the orbi is connected to? You devices maybe connecting to the main router if so.
