Actually you can buy Orbi in 3-pack too.
Didn't know that! Only saw the rb50 in twin pack. But the price is too high already. How's the stability and speed for both?

Can velop speed be similar to ASUS AC68U?
Bought a 3 node velop. Installed it yesterday and everything swee swee.
I stay in a 5 room HDB flat but due to the position where I usually use my devices that require wifi, my trust old ac68U couldn't help. I used all 3 nodes.
Surprised that I was able to manage my velop remotely via the linksys app.
Hi all
Need some advices on strange issues in bridge mode.
Current setup: ONT>EA9200>velop x3. But when I check into EA9200, I can only see 3 velop nodes and no other devices. How to rectify this issue? There are abt 20 devices connected to velop before switching to bridge mode. I already off the EA9200 wifi and no other settings done except as advised in linksys instructions of setup bridge etc. But I still not able to rectify this issue of no devices showing up at main router. Internet connection is up n running despite this cosmetic issue. Weird. Any advice would be deeply appreciated!!! Thanks.
anyone here has their Velops connected in bridged mode to a Linksys main router that suppports Smart-wifi Linksys app?
when you open up the app, what do you see? will it by default show the main router admin page, or the Velop admin page? or will it show you a menu to select either the main router or Velop?
care to show some screenshots? thanks!
The issue comes in when u want local access, you will have to manually log into each device when u want to access them.
not quite sure what u mean, can rephrase? what is local access? how to manually log into each device?

Linksys smart wifi routers will have 2 types of access. One is via local access in which u key in the password via a lan computer or mobile phone connected to it via WiFi. Another type is via Internet in which you can use the app to access the router interface anywhere in the world.
Your velop is in bridge mode?
yes in bridge mode
got me a 3 node Velop yesterday, but struggling to set up in bridge mode.
original config is:
Netgear Nighthawk >> HP 24 port switch >> Velop 3 parent via LAN + 2 wireless child nodes.
this worked ok, but because of distance, wireless child nodes v slow.
One of the child nodes can be plugged into LAN. So what I did was change whole system to bridge mode, then plug in LAN cable to second child node.
Now, devices on child nodes fail to assign IP address to devices trying to connect.
What am I doing wrong. I read elsewhere can set up the LAN connected nodes BOTH as parents BUT then have different wifi networks, ie not proper mesh.
Any ideas bros ?
You don't have to set up bridge mode. It works when you plug the child nodes to the parent node directly..
Now u have to reset the system altogether to make sure these nodes are properly configured...
