Step 1: Connect the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router
The Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router (model SXR30) can be used alone, or supports up to
four satellites. The back of the router has one yellow WAN port and three LAN ports. The
label on the router displays model SXR30, and the preset WiFi network name (SSID) and
password.
1. To set up a WiFi network with Internet, the router must connect to a modem or a
gateway that provides Internet.
• If you use a modem, unplug the modem, remove and then reinsert the backup
battery if it uses one, and plug the modem back in.
• If you use a gateway, we recommend that you turn off your gateway’s WiFi.
2. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your modem or gateway to the yellow WAN port on
the back of your Orbi Pro WiFi6 Mini router.
3. Connect the router to a power source.
The Power LED on the back of the router lights green.
4. When the bar LED on the front of the router lights solid white, the router’s preset WiFi
network is ready for setup.
The router’s bar LED turns off after about three minutes.
Step 2: Connect a satellite from a kit (optional)
If you purchased an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router with one or more satellites in a kit, the
satellites are already paired with the router. If you purchased an additional satellite
separately, see Step 4. Sync an add-on satellite to the router (optional).
1. Place the satellite approximately 10 ft. away from the router, facing the router, with a
direct line of sight.
2. Connect the satellite to a power source.
The Power LED on the back of the satellite lights green.
The Bar LED on the front of the satellite pulses white while booting up.
3. When the bar LED on the satellite lights blue, the connection between the router and
satellite is good.
If the bar LED lights amber or magenta, see Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini Satellite sync
information.
Step 3: Set up the WiFi network’s Internet connection
1. Connect your WiFi-enabled computer or mobile device to the router using a WiFi or
Ethernet connection:
• WiFi. Use the preset WiFi network name (SSID) and password on the router label
to connect to the Orbi WiFi network.
• Ethernet. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the router.
2. Launch a web browser and type orbilogin.com in the address eld.
If a security warning displays, see https://kb.netgear.com/000062980 for information
on how to dismiss the message.
3. The interactive Internet setup process starts. This process can take several minutes to
complete.
When you complete the process, your settings are applied, and the devices restart.
The router’s bar LED turns off when the setup completes. You can unplug and move the
satellite to the desired location.
Step 4. Sync an add-on satellite to the router (optional)
If you want to extend your WiFi coverage, you can purchase an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite
(model SXS30) separately.
To sync an add-on Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite:
1. Place the satellite approximately 10 ft. away from the router, facing the router, with a
direct line of sight.
2. Connect the satellite to a power source.
The Power LED on the back of the satellite lights green.
After approximately two minutes, the satellite bar LED lights solid white.
3. Press the Sync button on the back of the satellite, and within two minutes, press the
Sync button on the back of the router.
The satellite bar LED pulses white.
4. When the bar LED on the satellite lights blue, the connection between the router and
satellite is good.
If the bar LED lights amber or magenta, see Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini Satellite sync
information.
Step 5. Place the satellite at the desired location (optional)
Place the satellite at the location where you want WiFi coverage. The satellite must be within
range of the router or another Orbi Pro satellite that is connected to the router. The router
supports a maximum of four satellites.
For information on optimal placement in home ofces see https://kb.netgear.com/31029, or
for business and commercial installations see https://kb.netgear.com/000045858/.
To place your Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite:
1. Place the satellite in the desired location.
2. Connect the satellite to a power source, and conrm that the bar LED lights blue.
If the satellite bar LED lights amber, indicating that the connection is fair but not good,
consider moving the satellite closer to the router.
3. If adding more than one satellite, repeat steps 1 and 2 of this procedure.
4. (Optional) After you conrm that the satellite has a good connection to the router, the
devices can be mounted.
