How to tell if satellite is hard wired?
So, quick question. I just hooked up my ORBI mesh system and I am able to hard wire each of the satellites. While I plugged it in, is there a way to check that the system is up and running correctl...
So, picked up a new cat5 cable this morning. Follwoed the picture in the manual and BINGO, all hard wired up. Thank you!
Thanks for the reply. They are dotted, BUT i just wired them via cable.
Are they directly connected to the RBR or running thru a LAN network switch?

So, the RBR is to a switch and from there to the satellite. On that first satellite I conencted my SONOS system and that succesfullly created it's own SONOS NET.
CORRECTION: I wired a cable directly from the router to a satellite.
RBS need to be connected directly to the RBR or via a non managed non green ethernet Gb LAN switch.
RBS can't be connected to any other device.
SO both are connected directly to the RBR or is there a switch in between one of the RBS an RBR?
