I tried re-syncing that cube which it did just fine, light is solid blue. Firmware is up to date. No fix.
Any ideas?
This appears to be a new installation, which should qualify for Netgear's 90 days of "complimentary support". (I find this humerous because obviously is included in the price-- i.e. "paid for"). That satellite might be defective and need to be replaced. You might try (a) switch the position of two satellites and see if the problem follows that one unit, and (b) do a manual firmware update (to the same release) on that satellite.
Depending on where it was purchased from, the RBK14 might be "returnable". (Amazon, Costco, etc.)
