Have posted previously that I am getting a Netgear Orbi and have received conflicting advice about the state of the modem. Should the Virgin hub 3 be in modem or router mode to get the best use of the Orbi.....If I leave the Hub in the router mode will the Orbi boost the signal and If I pout it in modem mode will it generate a new wifi address.
Thankyou for the understanding around my confusion
You have two options.
1. Use teh hub in modem mode and let the orbi take care of everything
2. Use the hub in router mode and configure the orbi in access point mode.
Option 1 is the recommended way of doing it.
If you go with option 2, then you should disable wireless on the hub, and let the orbi take care of that, but the hub will still offer gateway services (dhcp, NAT etc..)
