Suddenly my ORBI RBS50Y started blinking blue and changed the SSID to NETGEAR. I have tried to reset it the normal way and also the 30-30-30 reset but nothing helps. Sometimes the default network SSI...

If the above instructions don't work you can always try the 30-30-30 reset as follows:
When router is powered on, press the reset button and hold for 30 seconds. (Use a paper clip or something sharp).
While holding the reset button pressed, unplug the power of the router and hold the reset button for 30 seconds.
While still holding the reset button down, turn on the power to the unit again and hold for another 30 seconds.
This process usually works for resetting any router to it's factory setting. (Source: https://www.router-reset.com/info/Netgear/Orbi-Outdoor-Satellite-RBS50Y).

Hi,
I have tried the 30-30-30 process as well, now I don't even see a network coming up. Since I had the Orbi configured as an extender in Mesh mode, what should the SSID be? The default Orbi or something else? I cannot see the network.
