Hows was your system updated? Auto update or did you manually update with FW files? 

Update and continue or factory reset and setup from scratch after the update?

    You might manually re-load v44, factory reset, then setup again...

      I did the reset on the satellite, poerwed off removed it, powered on with reset pushed. Now instead of one of the messages per day the log records them constantly.

        If you are running out of option, go to the Satellite telnet terminal, type:

                1. config default

                2. config commit

                3. reboot

         

        After the Satellite comes back online and establishes "Good" backhaul connection, check the logs again.  If you see the same error messages, then try generating a new "Backhaul Password" and see if that helps.

         

        Good luck!
