Changed SSID on my router, but the satellite still shows the old SSID
Hi everyone, I tried to change the SSID on my router and satellite last night, but it only half worked. The router is broadcasting the correct new SSID but the satellite is not. I've rebooted bot...
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
No, but I did perform a factory reset directly before updating the firmware. I originally configured the router before powering on the satellite and then read that both should be on at the same time.
So I reset to defaults and started the base installation, which worked perfectly. Firmware was updated from 2.3.x.x as part of the installation process.
Theres more recent version of FW availalbe as well:
I would update the RBS then the RBR, then factory reset and setup from scratch. Use the setup wizard to walk thru the setup and add the RBS. It should connect and sync up.
2.5.1.16 is the firmware I already have. The units don't detect a new one when I check for updates.
The system may not see this version as it's a minor FW update. So you can manually download FW files and apply them manually your self. RBS should be updated first then RBR lastly. RBS and RBR should be on same version of FW.
