RBR50 and 2 RBR50S and one wall satellite - STOPPED WORKING
I have had my RBR50 (latest firmware is 2.2.1.210) since 11/2016. I can't get Netgear to support it (surprise). I came home tonight and all my satellites are magically sharing the same ip address ...
4 hours later, I changed all my satellites to static via these directions:

UPDATE : Apparently there was an update I was not aware of. I subscribe to Netgears emails but was not aware of 2 major updates.
RBR50 v2.2.1.212 and v2.3.0.32 manual upgrades
RBS50 same upgrades
RBW30 v2.3.0.4
I upgraded all 4 of my devices (2 hours later) and all 3 of my satellites remain on 192.168.1.250. They previously would get their IP address. How do I fix this? Thanks

It is not clear if your issue continues after firmware upgrade: Please let us know.
- Yes, the issue still persisted after the firmware upgrades. I had to assign my Satellites separate static IPs. I used .25 .26 .27. That solved my problem.
Good deal.... from what I have seen, it is pretty much a standard practice for orbi owners to reserve IPs for their satellites.
