Pulsing white. Your Orbi router and satellite are applying a configuration or updating their firmware.
Since that is unlikely for so long of a time, and if you cannot reset it there is a chance that it is bricked. Did the power possibly go out on it while it was applying firmware?

Thanks's for your response. It's unlikely that it lost power during a firmware update, but I guess it's possible. I have not had the satellite very long so I will try to get it swapped out.
Thanks again!

Ha Ha, now having this issue myself after having done a config restore.
Showing one satellite connected - but I can see the other one on the network if I go to its IP.
This is just crazy that this is happening after my support period of 90 days is done and now I have no recourse except to troubleshoot this myself. This is just crazy.
