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...
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.
As I said, that's the firmware I already have.
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. I would do this with the RBS in the same room as the RBR. 6-10feet distance.
Any options other than another factory reset?
Login to the web UI of the satellite and manually update its firmware, then sync the satellite to the routers. You should not need to factory reset the router unless it still does not work after updating and syncing the satellites.
