Just about to install a new Orbi mesh router and satellite station. I have a blue connected on the old router at the moment and a red in the draw. Would you recommend to clear the device back to factory before starting with the new router. Would you recommend DHCP or simple to start with. Will just the blue on the main router be sufficient, or can you utilize the red on the satellite box.

  Orbi works nicely with Simple mode.  Just make sure you do not monitor the mesh nodes.  If you are good with tech, just bring it over and see if it works :)  it doesn't then reset the walla.  Make sure you plug blue into the main unit or a switch connected to the main unit

  The Red and blue cannot co-exist on the same network segment.
