    Running OrbiOS 2.1 on RBR40 and RBW30 (RBK33 bundle). I have restarted the router on two occassions since updating to 2.1, and tonight I re-synced the satellites trying to get both to appear on the Admin page. The Orbi iOS app reportes two satellites while the Admin page says one of them is disconnected. I can ping 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3.

     

    I have enabled both Circle and daisy-chain topology. The Circle profile is rather large, with profiles by device rather than by family member.

     

    I have not noticed the router making any noise indicating CPU spin-up, but I am not monitoring it closely. Does the Admin page offer CPU monitoring?

     

    [Update: CPU of my router has been hovering around 15% recently, while the satellites have been running around 20%]
