Orbi Wall plug magenta light
My Orbi Wallplug satellite is synced to my RBK50 router. All devices are on the latest firmware.
However, the satellite loves the solid magenta. It will keep going back to solid magenta at least once every 2 hours.
not sure why it keeps losing internet connection.
tried to reset the satellite and setup again and it just keeps repeating going magenta every couple of hours.
strange as my other RBK50 satellite does not have this problem.

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router - FURRYe38Guru - Experienced User
Any progress on this?
