Problems with logging directly in to RBW30
When I try to login to the webpage for my just acquired RBW30 using the IP address I get username and password errors. I can login directly to my RBS40V satellite with no issues using the same userna...
Success! I can log in to my RBW30 web page by using admin/password as the credentials. Once I logged in, I was able to update the RBW30 to the latest firmware.
Yes, the RBW30 shows up just like the RBS40V as a connected satellite. The Backhaul Status is good and the Connection type is 5ghz.

What a puzzle. Sometimes things "shake out" if every device is powered off and then back on, starting with the router.
Otherwise, "I got nothin"
I powered everything down and backup up again there was no change. I can log in to the RBS40V satellite using its IP address and using the same username and password as I use for the router. I cannot log in to the RBW30. Otherwise the RBW30 is working as expected and shows up as a satellite in the Orbi Web browser and in the Orbi iphone app. I am stumped.
It also looks like my RBW30 needs a firmware update but since I cannot log in to the Web page, I can't apply the update. I am on V2.5.0.2 and the latest version for the RBW30 is V2.6.2.2. I tried to install the update from the Router page and it also is looking for the Username and password that I don't have. The RBW30 is quickly becoming very frustrating.
