Hello rick9004 ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
Please ensure that your Orbi mesh system is on the latest firmware release version 2.7.5.4 then factory reset your satellite.
The RBR50 is compatible with the following satellites:
- RBS10
- RBS20
- RBW30
- RBS40
- RBS40V
- RBS50
- RBS50Y
(Please note the devices attached to the satellite will have a slower network connection than the devices attached to the router if an older satellite is used.)
If you are not on the latest firmware release please navigate to the link below for the download file for your RBR50:
