The satellite’s ring LED lights white while the satellite
attempts to sync with the cable modem router. Then
the ring LED lights one of the following colors for
about three minutes and then turns off:
Blue. The cable modem router and satellite
successfully synced, and the connection between
the cable modem router and satellite is good.
Amber. The cable modem router and satellite
successfully synced, and the connection between
the cable modem router and satellite is fair.
Consider moving the satellite closer to the
cable modem router.
Magenta. The cable modem router and satellite
failed to sync. Move the satellite closer to the
cable modem router and try again.
Note: If the ring LED still lights magenta after
about one minute, press the Sync button on the
cable modem router and on the satellite. If the satellite
syncs with the cable modem router, the satellite’s
ring LED lights white. The ring LED then lights blue to
indicate a good connection and then turns off.

1. Turn off and disconnect existing modems and
routers.
If you are replacing a modem that is currently
connected in your home, unplug the modem and
plug the new cable modem router into the same
outlet.
2. Use a coaxial cable to connect the coaxial cable
connector on the cable modem router to the cable
wall outlet.
We recommend connecting
directly to the cable wall outlet. If
you must share the connection,
use a 3.5dB (1 to 2) splitter.
3. Connect the power adapter to the cable modem
router and plug the power adapter into an
electrical outlet.
The startup procedure takes about one minute.
When it is complete, the Power LED lights solid
white.
4. Wait for the Online LED
to light solid white.
This process might take up to 10 minutes.
Note: When the Online LED lights, your
cable modem router is still not connected
to the Internet. You must activate your
cable modem router with your ISP.
5. Connect your computer or mobile device to the
Orbi cable modem router with WiFi or Ethernet:
• WiFi. Use the WiFi network name (SSID) and
password on the cable modem router label to
connect.
• Ethernet. Use an Ethernet cable to connect
a computer to an Ethernet port on the
cable modem router. (The computer must
have an Ethernet port.)
