Download bandwidth per SSID
You can set up four WiFi networks for your Orbi Pro WiFi 6 network: one for
administrative access, one for employee access, one for Internet of things (IoT) devices,
and one for guest access. You can manage the download bandwidth per WiFi network
(SSID) by assigning a percentage of the total bandwidth (100 percent) to each SSID.
The available download bandwidth on an SSID determines the network priority for
devices connected to the SSID.
If the download bandwidth usage on an SSID exceeds the assigned bandwidth for the
SSID, the router limits the bandwidth on the SSID, which might affect the download
speed for devices connected to the SSID.
In setting the download bandwidth ratio for an SSID, consider the number and type of
devices that connect to the SSID and the typical download bandwidth usage for those
devices. For example, more devices might connect to the IoT WiFi network than to the
employee network, but the typical bandwidth usage for IoT devices might be lower
than for employee devices.
Note: The router does not control the uplink bandwidth, that is, the bandwidth from
devices to the router.
To set the download bandwidth ratios for the SSIDs:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
Orbi network.
2. Enter orbilogin.com.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display a login window but displays a security warning and
does not let you proceed, see What to do if you get a browser security warning on
page 29.
3. Enter the admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you set the first time that you
logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select Wireless.
The Wireless Settings page displays the admin WiFi settings.
