Received my replacement satellite from NG yesterday. I received an updated version of the satellite - an RBS50v2. Changed the config on the Orbi Router to router mode per your suggestion...and everything is working just fine. Thank you so much!!
Glad it's working well for you now.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
