Orbi 53 with latest firm updates and satellite does not show any devices

I updated firmware and my satellite does show any device ms connection. Internet is fine all satellites are working fine 4 of them just on orbi app all show green and connected but does now show any device connected. Why before old firmware it used to show which device connected to which satellite. Please can somebody explain or is it firmware problem?? Or some thing else

  • Please try a factory reset and setup from scratch with the RBR and RBS.

      Thank you .
      Right now since everyone working and schooling from home and internet is working fine I do not want to reset and try all over again. I taught if there is easy fix. I earlier turn in and off all satellite and router. Do do factory Resettings I have to wait At list month.

        Something to try maybe at night after everyone has gone to bed when you get time. 

        If the system is working otherwise, let it go for now.

      My orbi app It says new firmware is available and I should update it. This was there for 3 months ( since dec 19) I ignored it until now. And updated last week. Now all are up to date. But this problem arise. I want to fix only is easy fix otherwise wait until next update.

        My advice is revert back now to the version that was stable for you.

         

        In the future do NOT do any manual (App or Email) updates,  When you NEED an update NG will push it to you with no action required by you.
