By configuring your Orbi router as an Orbi access point, you can use its WiFi instead of the WiFi on your existing network.
How do you set up your Orbi router to function as an Orbi access point?
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN port of your existing router or gateway to the Internet port of your Orbi router.

- The user name, admin, is the password you created during setup. There must be an exact match between the username and the password.
- The BASIC Home page is visible.
- Under ADVANCED > Advanced Setup, select Router / orbi AP Mode.
- The page for the router/orbi AP mode gets displayed.
- To enter Orbi AP Mode, click the radio button. The page updates.

NOTE: You cannot use the Orbi app to control your Orbi system when it is in orbi access point mode.
