Orbi Satellite Ethernet Ports Not Working
But like the other people who have posted when i detach the 8 port ethernet switch connected to the router the other ports on the orbi router start working again.
Orbi satellite ethernet ports not working. It makes more sense if orbi supported both wired and wireless at full speed. I just installed orbi rbk50. Seriously why even bother with the 3 4 ethernet ports on the back if wired backhaul does not work. Resetting the router occasionally starts working but go.
Hi i am using orbi router for last 2 months just fine. Unfortunately they dropped a large ball when it came to wired side of things. It was very easy to install but one problem. Satellite is connected with devices attached but when i plug anything into the lan ports they don t get an ip.
My home is two stories and 1500sqft. Today morning the lan port son router suddenly stopped working. Surprisingly i was able to connect to the internet via ethernet port on satellite. Ethernet port on the main router seemed not working.
Well buying items over the years lots of people are left with wired and wireless clients. One of the satellite was connected over wired backhaul that also switched to wireless. Info that might be useful. I saw that the satellites have ethernet ports would i be able to plug in a ps4 via ethernet to a orbi satellite and get a wired connection with full speed.
Rebooting the router does not help. The wifi is fine although it s died a couple times but came back when i did a reset. I requested a replacement kit from amazon and got the new one set up tested the lan ports with the satellite 2 feet from the router once i got the router satellite configured and the firmware updated on both to 1 4 0 18.
