Orbi Router Login & Setup

Setting up an Orbi router is generally straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you set up your Orbi router:

1. **Unpack and Connect**: Unpack your Orbi router and power it on by connecting it to a power source. Then, connect your Orbi router to your modem using the provided Ethernet cable.

2. **Connect to Orbi Network**: Use a computer or mobile device to connect to the Orbi network. The default Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password are typically printed on a sticker on the router or included in the documentation.

3. **Access Router Settings**: Open a web browser on your connected device and type in the default IP address of your Orbi router (usually http://192.168.1.1 or http://orbilogin.com). Press Enter, and you should be prompted to enter the default username and password. These are usually “admin” for both the username and password, but check your router’s documentation for confirmation.

4. **Setup Wizard**: Once you’ve logged in, you may be guided through a setup wizard that will help you configure basic settings, such as internet connection type (DHCP, PPPoE, Static IP), Wi-Fi network name (SSID), and Wi-Fi password. Follow the on-screen instructions.

5. **Update Firmware**: After completing the setup wizard, it’s a good idea to check for and install any available firmware updates for your Orbi router. This can usually be done from the settings menu.

6. **Configure Advanced Settings**: You can customize additional settings such as port forwarding, DHCP settings, parental controls, and guest network settings according to your preferences. These options are typically available in the router’s web interface.

7. **Connect Additional Orbi Satellites (Optional)**: If you have Orbi satellite devices to extend your Wi-Fi coverage, you can set them up by following the instructions provided with the satellites. Typically, you’ll need to sync them with your Orbi router using the Orbi app or web interface.

8. **Placement**: Position your Orbi router in a central location for optimal Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home or office. Keep it away from obstructions and interference sources such as microwaves and cordless phones.

9. **Test Connection**: Once everything is set up, test your internet connection to ensure everything is working correctly. You can do this by browsing the web or using a speed test tool.

10. **Secure Your Network**: Finally, make sure to change the default admin password for your Orbi router to something secure and enable any additional security features like WPA2 encryption for your Wi-Fi network.

By following these steps, you should be able to set up your Orbi router and establish a stable Wi-Fi network. If you encounter any issues, Contact us for assistance.
