How do I change the Orbi satellites's password?
During initial setup I set a password that I now want to change. I can do that for the Router in the web interface settings but the satellite will still keep the 'old' password. No syncing withe the ...
Try to remove the RBS from the RBR systems UI. Then factory reset the RBS then re-add it using the sync buttons on the RBR and RBS. The re-add should sync the PW to the RBS for whats set on the RBR.

Changing the pw on the router is never synced onto the sat. This seems to be a common problem judging by the threads here which for some reason I cannot reply to as a new user. Some have it, some don't.
I had a similar problem signing into the Orbi Satellites after changing my password on the Orbi Router. In my case, the initial satellite login always failed (I think it was a 404 message). But if I just did a browser refresh,, I was then logged in.
I have lived with this situation for awhile but it has now been resolved after I updated the firmware to version V2.3.5.30. FYI, I did the automatic "Update All" method, not the manual update.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
