    So the printouts and logs show that the router sees the satellite but there is no where that confirms that it's wired. Let's try the following change please, try the following telnet commands:

    • config set satellite1="A0:04:60:17:11:CC 10.0.10.161 RBS50 4PN1685T03620 -100 V2.3.0.32 1 A0:04:60:17:13:2A wired 1 -100"
    • config commit

    After this check the attached devices in the web GUI and the Orbi app.

Same here!  IOS Orbi app showing no satellites, but login to router via browser shows both satellites connected.  Satellites LED also off, indicating a good connection.

    Make sure the app is up to date. There has been a recent update to the app.
