Honestly, I bought this not realizing it was a converted satellite. I do not know how to convert it back.
I am thinking I will return it and try and find a legitimate satellite that will work with my RBR40.

If you can return it, I sure would. Sounds like a sketchy situation for someone to sell you a converted device that isn't working.
Take a look on amazon. They had renewed rbk43 kits for pretty darned cheap. That'd get you a backup router plus 2x satellites to use. Its nice to have a backup router when you have a bunch of money tied up in satellites.
