Orbi RBS50 satelites to RBK53

I have an RBK53 router with 2 RBS53 satelites and want to add satelites. I bought 2 used RBS50v2 satelites but the RBK53 router does not detect them when I want to install them.

Any advice?

  • what firmware version is on original satellites? And on the new ones? 

    Have you tried hardwiring them in for setup and sync? 

    Once synced, you should be able to disconnect them.
