Weak Signal to Satellite Right Next to Router!
I just purchased the RBK50 router and satellite kit and set it up according to instructions. I'm getting a signal ok to my laptop 10 feet away, speedtest showing 155mbps download and 11.8 upload.

So why is the satellite LED showing amber when it's right next to the router, instead of blue?
How long has it been amber? Once things settle down, ALL lights should go out. After about 30 minutes if the lights are still on I would re-boot all.
The LED light shut off, so I moved the satellite downstairs and about 10 feet or less from where I was sitting with my laptop and it took awhile, but it's showing blue and I'm getting 188mbps on my laptop about 6 feetl away from that, so I guess it all good to go.
Thanks a lot!
