I have the exact same issue after upgrading to 2.5.1.8.
My two satellites (V1 and V2) show as "disconnected" and only a handful of wireless devices show connected to the router (V1).
However, I have several other devices that are currently connected to the satellites and working fine.
This must be a problem with the firmware.

How did you get your system? I first set up the RBR with out the RBS, was off. Configured AP mode and set static IP on the RBR. Got it configured fully then synced the RBS wirelessly. Once that was done, placed back in remote location. As linked in my recent post. Orbi app and UI report correct functionality on my devices. Not sure if it has to with the process of adding the RBS or not. Just something I noticed last friday when I did this to help see if I could reproduced this with my v1 on v2.5.1.8.

My original system was the 2-pack (RBR50 / RBS50 - both V1). About a year later, I added the 2nd satellite (RBS50 - V2).
I have had similar issues with prior firmware upgrades on losing the satellites temporarily, but never this bad.
I'll try to perform factory reset on everything tonight and do your proposed initial setup ...

Sounds good. Please try adding just 1 RBS at first. Check the status and if you see devices on both RBR and RBS thru the orbi app and web page. You should. If you do, then add the 2nd RBS. Plausable that v2 RBS could be doing something different.
