Orbi mesh

Post by Wgb1129 »

I previously attempted to install an EERO mesh network and could never figure out how to make the QNAP work with the network. After installation I could never connect to the QNAP. I was able to determine whether there was an IP address issue where the EERO assigned IP address causes some conflict. Never could get an answer so I gave up.

I’m going to try again with Orbi. Is anyone using such a configuration and do you find problems with it? I’d so, have you found an answer? I’m hoping for some advice before I start.

Given the tons of information an answer is not easy... :wink:
EERO/Orbi are WLAN mesh systems, a QNAP NAS does not offer a WLAN interface, so how did you connect the NAS to the WLAN?
QNAP is known, that not all WiFi sticks are running. In most cases it is better to connect the NAS to by LAN to a router/repeater and add this device into the network.
