General Discussion / Orbi rbr850 ap mode not working
December 17, 2025, 03:57:08 PM
�Hi, I installed OPNsense virtually through Proxmox VE on my CWWK mini PC. I have my cable modem plugged into Port 1, and when I plug my PC (running Ubuntu) into Port 2, everything works perfectly—I see 1.2G download speeds via fast.com.
�However, the issue started when I tried to hook up the WiFi. I connected the mini PC to the yellow WAN port on my Orbi, and then plugged my PC into the Orbi's LAN 1 port. In this setup, I can still access Proxmox and OPNsense via IP, and the wired PC has internet. However, the Orbi lights up purple (indicating no internet). If I connect my phone to the WiFi, it connects and validates the password, but says "No Internet."
�Has anyone encountered this problem where wired LAN works but WiFi does not in AP mode? If I left out critical information, let me know and I'll answer ASAP.
�For now, I put my Orbi back into Router Mode and the WiFi is working again (it changed its IP to 10.0.0.1 to avoid conflicts). Even though it's working, I'd really like to get it into AP Mode so I don't have my traffic managed twice. Thanks.
