Are you looking for an answer to this query? Reading this blog post entirely is going to help you out. We will guide you through the steps to connect your Orbi satellite with Verizon router in this post. Thus, read on.
You cannot directly connect your Orbi satellites to the Verizon router. The satellites work only with compatible Orbi routers. Therefore, you need to link the Orbi router to the Verizon router and then connect satellites to the Orbi router.
But when you are connecting two routers, this causes Double NAT. That means two different routers are creating their own networks. The devices in one network can’t communicate with the devices in the second network. What to do in that situation? Read on further.
Two routers can simultaneously be used in one network by shutting off the WiFi capabilities of the ISP router or using it in bridge mode. That is your Verizon router.
The second option that you have is to use the Orbi router in Access Point mode. However, this will turn off some router functions on your Orbi.
The Verizon router is operating in Bridge mode now. Connect the Orbi router to it and then sync Orbi satellites to the Orbi router. Here you are setting up Orbi in router mode.
If you do not want to use the Verizon router in bridge mode, then change mode on Orbi router to Access Point mode. Access the Orbi router login page to get this job executed.
You can use the Orbi app to log in and change the mode. However, we suggest you using the web interface.
You have your Orbi router running in the Access Point mode. It connects to the Verizon router with an Ethernet cable. Sync Orbi satellites to router and you are good to go.
If you wish to turn the mode to Router mode you can log in and change the mode.
The post meant to help you guide you through the query “Can you connect Orbi satellites with Verizon router” comes to an end. We expect that we have provided you with the best possible solution for the situation that you are stuck with.
