The XB7 either needs to go into bridge more or the Orbi needs to go into bridge mode. If none of that makes sense… well… I’d need more time to type it up
The other option, which might work, is you’d need to manually put a port forwarding rule in 2 places:
The XB7 pointed at the Orbi WAN IP
The Orbi pointed at the Core IP
The port used for these forwarding rules needs to be the same as reported by Settings → Roon ARC
That is, it needs to be the same through the network all the way to Core and it needs to match what is configured on the Core.
yes, solve one problem to create another? The endless cycle… you’ve earned your “network engineer” badge
It all depends on if anything was plugged into or attached to the XB7. If you never used its wifi, and the only thing connected was the Orbi, then you should be good to go. If something was connected to it then you should be able to just reconfigure it to use the Orbi at this point.
I know this sounds dumb but can’t figure out to post my problem on the Roon Community page! So I am writing you in hope that you are someone else on your team can help. I have been a ecstatic Roon user for a few years now but I have never been able to set up ARC since its debut. I recently moved from Xfinity to Quantum Fiber and thought I would try again. I have gone through the interactive help feature on the Community site but this did help me either. Here is Diagnostics data:
In addition to the Quatum Fiber Modem I uses an Orbi router. Per the trouble shooting steps, I have confirmed that Upnp is enable. I tried a few things on the the modem GUI and the Orbit router GUI but nothing has helped.
I would really like to get the most out of Roon and any advice would be hugely appreciated
