Use the router as a WiFi access point only

By default, router functions as both a router and a WiFi access point (AP).
If you disable the mobile broadband connection entirely so that the router uses a wired
Internet connection only (see Change the Internet connection mode to wired Internet
only or mobile broadband only on page 22), you can set up the router to run exclusively
as an AP on the same local network as another router or gateway. If you do so, the router
features are disabled.
For example, you can use the Orbi router as an AP that connects to a gateway or modem
router that you already use for your Internet service. In this situation, you do not need
to change the settings for the gateway or modem router.
To set up the Orbi router as an AP after you set up your Internet connection:
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the Internet port of this router to a LAN port on
your existing router or gateway.
2. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
3. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window opens.
4. Enter the admin user name and password.
