Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Router Model SXR50 and Orbi Pro WiFi 6 AX5400 Satellite Model SXS50 About the LANs A local area network (LAN) can generally be defined as a broadcast domain. Hubs, bridges, or switches in the same physical segment or segments connect all end devices. Endpoints can communicate with each other without the need for a router such as an Orbi Pro router.
Page 109: Lan Settings
Note: The IP settings for LAN 1 can be automatically changed if the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 router detects a double NAT condition. (For more information about double NAT, visit https://kb.netgear.com/30186/What-is-double-NAT-and-why-is-it-bad.) The router can detect this condition during the setup process if you select router mode even though another router is already present in your network.
