You do get the a solid magenta light on the router, when using wired backhaul? If this is the case, this might not be an indicator for a non-working wired backhaul, but simply a bug in the FW of the router.
I get the magenta light on the satellite.
I had that one time, I think… if the satellite is otherwise working, you clould just shut off the LED ring ion the satellite and see if it lights up again…

The satellite connection doesn't work, the wired backhaul doesn't recover after a router reboot, you have to disconnect and reconnect the ethernet cable.

i was having problems iwth 2.1.4.0 suddenly yesterday - kept locking up, couldn't connect ot the router page, no wifi or hardwired internet access - I thought I would have to send it in or what? Setup is RBK53 from costco with 1 wired satellite and 1 wireless. Daisy chain setting was enabled and still left enabled.
Finally did a factory reset and couple of power cycles and syncing the satellites back and seems to be stable now.

If you only have 1 Satellite, you can disable Daisy Chain, its not needed if you only have 1 satellite. Try disabling MIMO and Fast Roaming. Try setting manual channels 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4gh as well.
