Hii,
You can following steps to fix the issue:
- Power off both the satellite and the main router.
- Reset the satellite by pressing and holding the reset button for about 10 seconds until the LED blinks.
- Power on the main router and wait until it fully boots up.
- Power on the satellite and wait for it to sync with the main router. This process may take a few minutes.
- If the sync doesn't happen, try moving the satellite closer to the main router to ensure a strong Wi-Fi connection.
- If the issue persists, you can try a factory reset on both the satellite and the main router. Remember, this will erase all previous settings, so be prepared to set up your network again.
I hope this may be help you to solve the issue.
