Remote Management via Orbi App
I noticed in the Orbi App, my two RBS50 satellites were not shown as connected. I tried a few things and looked at my Orbi with the Genie App. I noticed it had a "Reboot Router" option and tried it....

No issues to report - printer was connected using the sync button on the RBR50.
For some reason I kept getting a response to enter the RBR50 default password even though I thought I had cchanged to password.
Once I entered the default I was able to permanently change it to password.
I think I only have the renaming of the connected devices.
I can close this issue now that I can log into the Orbi app and Remote Management is NOT greyed out.

Glad it's all working well. I would do a save configuration to file as back up in case you need to factory reset again. This will save setup time.
Enjoy now. :smileywink:

I believe that is the default setting; I think I saw the checkbox checked. <G> But thanks for the reminder; I will look into it to be sure.

I was wrong; I did a backup of the .cfg file and I can select it when I go to the recover step. Thanks again.
Enjoy. :smileywink:
