Cannot connect Orbi satellite
I recently purchased a refurbished Netgear Orbi RBR50 System with on RBS50 satellite off Ebay. (I actually purchased two systems, one of which is working perfectly, and which I've gifted to someone)....

- It looks like both Orbi and your ISP modem are in Router Mode. Please make sure that the ISP modem is bridged if you want the Orbi to provide router functionality. If you can't bridge the ISP modem then you need to set Orbi in AP Mode.
- It also looks like the Satellite has a pre-set IP address. I would start by resetting the Satellite to factory settings by inserting a paperclip in the reset hole and keep it presse for around 10 seconds, then (when the Satellite's ring starts pulsating) press the Sync button in the Router to make them sync.
