Connecting to Netgear Orbi RBK 23 - Huawei Mate 30 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi All,
New to the forum and I think this is the only place I may be able to get some answers.
I recently installed Netgear Orbi RBK 23 at home, and every single device can connect to the network, with the exception of my Mate 30 Pro, and an older Huawei phone. It would "Obtaining IP Address", then time out.
The interesting thing is that the Orbi is connected in AP mode to my ISP router (a Hitron), and the Mate 30 Pro would connect to the Hitron router just fine wirelessly (I currently have the wireless turned off on the Hitron)
My phone is the China version using EMUI 10.1.0, and have added GMS to it. The build number is 10.1.0.132
Any help is appreciated! If worst case, I will turn the wireless on the Hitron back on.

Have you tried giving static ip and then connecting?

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.
Yes I did. But it did not work. I also tried forgetting the network, then resetting the network settings. It did not work either.

Fuze and home Wi-Fi

I'm having a technical problem with my home Wi-Fi router, and my Fuze. I just recently set up a wireless network at home, and have my PC connected to the router through Wi-Fi. Whenever I attempt to connect my Fuze to the router, the Fuze hijacks the connection, and disconnects my PC from the network. I have tried to contact the tech support for the router, but nothing they suggest seems to work. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something I am missing in the router configuration? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

i've used my fuze on multiple routers and it doesnt do this. Get a new router
If you give static ip on both pc and ppc check if you gave the same ip. If not, check the dhcp range on your router.

Maybe I should not have said "any help would be greatly appreciated". It is a new router.

It is a Linksys RangePlus WRT110 router.

First thing I would try is updating the firmware, and doing a factory restore.
If that doesn't work, try changing the router to force 54g connections only. It's possible, but unlikely, that the Draft-N spec used by the router doesn't play nicely with the WLAN chipset in the Touch Pro.

agreed, i would try this first. makes sense that if they both have the same ip that that is the cause of your problem. if you're set to assign dynamic ip's on connecting to the router, then i'd try upgrading the firmware. good thing to check first
Still having problems with this issue. Tried everything suggested so far.
Make sure the IP's are not conflicting and the dhcp range is at least 10 addresses.
It could also be a neighbor screwing around, make sure you encrypt your wifi with wpa or wpa2 or anyone in range can use your wifi.
When I first read your problem I thought it was an IP conflict with both devices like some others have said....but if you've checked everything and tried all possible solutions posted in this thread I think it might be pretty safe to assume that you need a new router. If its new, just bring it back and exchange it for a different one.
I'm using a D-Link DIR-655P and have connection types (B, G, N) on auto, dynamic IP address assignment set, and I have the latest firmware installed and I have no issues whatsoever...I have a quick lock and fast speeds.
I've got a few questions, because to me this sounds like a possible issue with your network adapter on your PC, rather than a DHCP "hijack" issue.
What is the ip on your PC after it gets "hijacked"?
Do you use sleep/hibernate modes on your PC?
Have you turned off Windows Firewall or any other security/virus/malware software on the PC?
This router is new, did this setup work with a previous router?
What security protocol are you using for wireless connections, WEP, WPA, WPA2, or none?
-----------------
Hope you can figure it out, that's gotta be a real PITA.
Got it fixed. Did some more research, and found that the firmware updates do not work with Firefox, so I used IE to do the update, and it works fine. For anyone else that uses or is planning to use this router, check the firmware. The firmware version that mine came with (1.0.4 build 10) does not work with multiple versions of Windows (ie: cannot have a computer with Win XP and another with Win Vista connected at the same time). Thanks for the help.
Ahhh...well there you go. Glad its fixed.

[Q] Can't find wifi

My eee pad can search and find wifi signals and can connect to my neighbours wifi but it can't find mine at all.
I added it manually but it says out of range.
I really don't know why it can't pick it up.
Any help is appreciated.

Do you have a 5GHz Wifi? I believe the Transformer only supports 2.4 GHz.
BR-6475nD its that. on virgin internet.
It does 2.4 and 5 at the same time.
Strange that it can connect to all the others and doesnt even find this one.
Please help
Some Android devices have problems connecting to certain WiFi devices unless you use static IP. I know I did with my old Linksys WRT54GS and the nook color and EVO 4G. Try setting the connection as a static IP.
Yours set up to use a certain channel or is it on auto?
i had the exact same problem with mine when i got it. I never had a problem with my android phone or laptop conecting to my wifi, just the transformer when i got it. I had to change channel on my router, i found some channels that didn't work a t all and some that inermittantly worked. I ended up using channel 1 of all channels.
Ive just picked mine up about 30 minutes ago, I had the same issue with a Sky router (UK). It was set to channel 12, I changed it to 10 and all is ok

Wifi Fix (pro'ly all devices)

putting this up for those on cm7 (especially 2.3.5 and above) or on stock rom and are having problems with wifi connectivity. case in point is upon first boot after a clean install, device can connect to wifi w/ apparently no problems. on subsequent wifi wake, however, it's either wifi is:
stuck in scanning
connects then disconnects or
all network/s are not in range
...even though other devices such as laptops or iWhatever have no problems connecting & browsing.
you may also need to set the regulatory domain on your device (settings-->wireless & networks-->wifi settings-->menu-->advanced) depending on your region (ch.11 works for me here in the philippines). this should match (or be higher than) the one you'll set on your router, as attached.
got this to work on three legends (one on a dlink router and the rest on different models of linksys) and on a dhd(?), router unknown. this is not THE end-all/ultimate solution, however. consider it as a first step in troubleshooting. HTH

Hello everybody! My HTC Legend is not rooted. Yesterday i bought new router D-Link DIR 615. Everything is ok: my laptop founds the WiFi, my girlfriend cellphone (Nokia 5230) founds the WiFi and it works awesome for them, BUT my HTC Legend don't see the WiFi at all. I disableb the WiFi Protected Setup but still nothing. Made the Beacon period to 30 but still nothing. I config the router without any type of security but still no detecting the WiFi. The 802.11 mode is mixed, Auto Channel is on too and still nothing. Please any opinions?! Thank you in advance!
P.S. I am sorry for my bad english!

[Q] Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 WiFi Connection Problem

Hi All, I've bought one of these beauty's and am well pleased with it. However I have come across a small but annoying problem that I hope someone can help me out with.
At initial set up I connect to my home network. This works absolutely fine. When I set the tablet to connect to my tethering hotspot on my S4 that is when problems occur. It connects initially but then shows disabled. The same now happens with the home network. The home network is via a HH5 which has both 2.4GHz & 5GHz. enabled. Telling the device to forget each of the AP's and reconnecting them does not work. Other devices (W7 PC's, the telly & another S4 ) can connect to my tethering hotspot without any problem.
My Sitecom Router did this, I had to disable OPS on it and do a hard reboot on the router. Give that a try.
I have the same problem...continue disconnection and reconnection...help me!!!
Try switching the channel. Use this APP to find the best one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer
For me, adding the Note to the static DHCP List in my router settings (trendnet TEW-652 BRP) seemed to do the trick. Some people also recommend changing 802.11 mode to single (g or n) as opposed to mixed (g and n), and changing IP to static in the Note Wi-Fi settings.
... Note Pro 12.2 (900) ...
I have the same problem

I have the same problem. I tried adding DHCP and all the other suggestions. None of them is solving the problem.

I had to change the broadcast channel on my hotspot to 2.4GHz to get the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 to see the WiFi network.
Mine's doing same thing. Turn off DHCP in wifi settings of 12.2 Pro and use a Static IP way the hell up there on the range so one of your dynamic devices doesn't grab it.
This tablet is such a piece of crap. Been trying to sell it forever. Definitely the worst display on any of the newest-generation Samsung devices. Plus it has these retarded problems with completely rudimentary technologies.

Wifi Connection Issues since Oreo

Is anyone else experiencing connection difficulties with wifi since Oreo? Both at work & home with good, strong wifi signals my phone struggles holding onto wifi. Continually drops & struggles to reconnect like I'm on the edge of a signal (but I'm not, mere feet from a router). THen once connected it'll sit with an x through the icon.
Never had this before the update. On bone stock, locked Oreo OPR6.170623.011. Already tried resetting network settings to no avail.
Edit: Been running in safe mode for awhile and it seems to have alleviated the issue. So now it's time to figure out what app isn't playing nice.
I had that. Turned off such to mobile data automatically
I had the exact same issue. I factory reset my phone twice and did not restore any apps and had the same problem. Phone was under warranty so received a replacement which I am keeping on 7.1.2 for now. No issues yet.
I have a Unifi AP lite setup. Maybe I never noticed it before, but I was using a Rasberry Pi as my manager, but now I'm using an actual cloud key.
I've tried messing with all manner of settings and channels and band steering and AP names with no luck. My Pixel XL 8.0.0 will connect stay on for a bit and drop then reconnect. It never misses a beat, to be honest, I don't notice drops in connection. I am also noticing it in my Nexus 7 2013. My laptop seems stable, my girlfriend hasn't said anything about her iPhone or laptop. My Xbox one is stable, as is my switch.
I've reset network settings and tried the safe mode thing with no luck. I may do a factory reset this weekend if I can find the time.
In the mean time, I'm happy to have unlimited data at the moment.
I think I've narrowed it down to using a custom DNS. I was using a RasPi with Pi-Hole and my phone could not stay connected to wifi. I turned off the router pointing to my pi and boom, strong signal.
I tried manually assigning my IP / DNS etc in android 8.0.0 and it would not connect or hold a connection. I tried to connect it to 8.8.8.8 with no luck either. Back to stock DHCP assigned and I have a strong stable connection.
same issue not too sure what to do...is there a way to downgrade wifi driver?

So I have a stupid network, I'll try to upload a diagram of it here. My apartment internet only comes in in the kitchen and cannot go anywhere else unless I get a different provider, even then I'm not sure.
I moved the Pi to the router/switch that connects to the AP instead of on the other side of my network bridge and I have had 0 problems since. The attached diagram is my old setup as I was trying to explain it to people. Sorry it's not very pro.
