Use remote access

To use remote access:
1. Launch a web browser on a computer that is not on your business network.
2. Type your router's WAN IP address into your browser's address or location field
followed by a colon (:) and the custom port number.
For example, if your external address is 134.177.0.123 and you use port number
8080, enter https://134.177.0.123:8080 in your browser.

Use the router as a WiFi access point

You can set up the Orbi Pro router to function as an access point (AP) on the same local
network as another router or gateway. When the Orbi Pro router functions as an AP, its
router features are disabled to prevent any conflict with the other router or gateway on
the network.
For example, you can use the Orbi router as a WiFi access point 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.
