Orbi ac3000 number of satellites- linking new satellites
I was able to successfully sync 4 ac3000 rbs50 satellites to my router system. So far so good.
Note when syncing more than 2 satellites to the router the led light on the satellite never seemed to go solid white during setup per instructions. Press the sync buttons on the satellite then the router anyway once the white led blinking on the satellite slows down. Eventually the satellite led will turn a disappointing pink but have patience. You will see it blink blue then solid pink then go odd totally and eventually... solid blue. Then go into app, again with patience, try searching for firmware update... nothing.., then magically you will have an option to update the satellite.
Patience is the key here. Hope this helps someone.
