Orbi RBR50 Satellite not connecting to the router
I have been using my Orbi RBR50 router with RBS50 satellites for nearly a month without any issues. I noticed that my satellite were connecting to the router. I've tried rebooting them both with ...
Itried connect by cable but but the sittuation kept the same, the router did not see the satelite.

Unfortunately you can't connect to the satellite except through the router.
You can find the Daisy Chain settings here:
Please note that you need to press the Sync buttons on both router and satellite to make them look for each other? You can also use the "Add Satellite" procedure in the GUI as follows:
Thanks I checked and the configuration is corre t, dayse chain ,
I pressed both side the sync button, but does not worked.
Why when I try to reset the satelie it`s not working? Is it a matter of firmaware?
The satelite seems normal, it is on, the led is green, but not answer any action I have done.
Do you see the Satellite anywhere in the “Attached Devices” list in the GUI?
This menu you can find under Basic settings

This can also be an issue in the router. Can be an IP assignment issue:
- Is the Orbi set in Router or AP mode?
- If in Router mode. What DHCP range do you have?
- Are your devices assigned the IP addresses in the range above?
- Please make sure that the Satellite is not in the Block list under "Access Control":
- Do you have the possibility to make a wifi scan? With a wifi scan you could see if the Router is broadcasting the Backhaul network with no SSID. Check the frequency and power level of that network.
Thanks for the help, bellow the configurantions you asked:
- The router is in Mode Router
-The range of IP is 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254
Are your devices assigned the IP addresses in the range above?
The devices assigned are is the range
Please make sure that the Satellite is not in the Block list under "Access Control":
The satelite is not in the block list or the other two list.
Do you have the possibility to make a wifi scan? With a wifi scan you could see if the Router is broadcasting the Backhaul network with no SSID. Check the frequency and power level of that network.
I have the Genie app in my cellphone I don`t know If I did correct the scan but it semms ok as you can see bellow. Why I check If the Router is broadcasting the Backhaul network with no SSID?
Are there anything esle I can do ?
