updated my RBR50 to firmware 2.5.0.38 satellites do not appear online

Hello, my RBR50 to firmware 2.5.0.38 last night

When i look at the connected devices on the 192.168.1.1 admin page (web interface), it says the satellites are not connected
when i look at the network map on the orbi app it says it is online.
I assume they are working?
Any one else having this issue?

  • I am seeing the same issue. It seems something broke in the new FW and I cannot see devices on the web ui either. On the app, the app finally showed some devices after a while, but it cannot retain the names anymore, keeps going to default

    Also circle is not working properly either.

      My Satellites are wired
      not sure what (hub and spoke, or daisy chain) means
      they all are connected to a single switch

        Ok, reads familiar to what I have just read about the new WiFi 6 Orbi - a very similar report.
