There are two easy ways:
- Open the Orbi web interface (http://orbilogin.net) and look at the Attach Devices page.
Satellites appear in a section at the top. - Power the satellite off and back on again.
The "ring light" at the top will go through several steps.
If you see a BLUE light for 70-120 seconds, that means it is connected and has a good signal.
