Netgear orbi app download

That'll give you an accurate measure of your speeds. Your results of that dictate the best way to troubleshoot this to be a connectio problem to a wireless issue. View solution in original post. That makes sense. I was hoping the Orbi app's speed test functionality would allow me to determine the best location for satellite routers by testing the speed from my wireless devices, but if it only tests the speed of the main router connected to my modem, then that doesn't seem to be the case and I would need to use a third-party solution.

Thank you. Speedtest is the app that the built in Orbi uses. You can use the same app on your phone for testing placment. Keeping in mind, you should run the test several times because Orbi will dynamically change 2. If IPV6 is enabled, logging in to the router using the genie app will fail. I am running an iPhone 6S with iOS If you are having problems, first I suggest shutting down the 47 apps running in the background.

Four star rating instead of Five Stars because I would like to see more of the legacy support in the administrative computer desktop dashboard built into the app. I know technology moves on, but Netgear supporters hang on to our equipment as long as we can. Help us with the legacy products!!

All cable providers stations look visually good and thinking about it my 5. I have 22 devices connected including security cameras etc. I do question quality of Speedtest just because sometimes it gives ridicules low results compared to browser Speedtests which put Orbi off the map and beyond the stars fast.

Maybe update for app will fix issue. Security: Running Bitcoin Core drives security features nuts and yet too redundant. I think to open ports and assign static addresses Orbi needs access through a browser. Thank you for your feedback. If we can be of further assistance please reach out to us at Netgearteam netgear.

I had a nightmare with the setup. Message 4 of 6. Message 5 of 6. If the ISP modem has a built in router, what mode is it working in? Router or Bridge? Message 6 of 6. Top Contributors. User Count.
