RBR40 not doing anything
I plug in my RBR40 and no lights come on. Cant find the network and cant login to the router on the computer. Satellite light is magenta. Tried resetting the system but it does nothing. No lights ...

It will probably help focus attention toward a solution if you provide some additional information. Such as:
- Is this RBR40 brand new, or was it working for a while and suddenly quit working?
- What kind of "reset" was this? (a) Turned the power off and back on? (b) held the end of a paperclip in the tiny "reset" hole next to the power plug?
- What is the RBR40 connected to? (brand & model)
- Has the Orbi WiFi name and password been changed from what appears on the product label (usually on the bottom of the case)?
Thanks

So I've had this orbi for 2 years. Has been working great. It's connected to my att modem. It's a pace 5268ac. Tried resetting both ways with power button and reset hole. And nothing has been changed as far as password. We used what was on the label. It was working well till yesterday. We noticed the satellite upstairs was not getting signal so we checked the main router and it was not working.

If no LED light is appearing on the top ring of the RBR after pressing and holding the reset button in for 15 seconds, then the RBR or power supply has gone bad I would presume.
