Wired ethernet backhaul not working

What is the Mfr and model# of the ethernet switch if one is in the configuration.

If you updated to recent FW v.210, try enabling Daisy Chain. Some have mentioned that this seems to be working in reverse order, enabling means disabled actually.

For wired back haul:

Set up IP address reservations for each satellite and devices on the router as you add them to the router. The satellites need to be set up via wireless first. Then connect 1 satellite at a time to the ethernet LAN cable. Wait 5 minutes and the top led on the satellite should turn on BLUE. Set up an IP address reservation for the 1st satellite. Continue to do the same thing for the 2nd satellite. Then follow up with your devices.

Model Number on my box lists it at RBK23 and the web setup page shows it at RBR20 and the 2 satellites as RBS 20.  Firmware is version 2.2.1.210 on the router and satellites.  Still can't get wired backhaul to work.  Did factory data reset on router and satellites.  All that did was waste 3 hours of my time.  The problem is still the same.  If I plug in the ethernet cable to a satellite, it will kill my whole network.  Even wired devices can't connect.  This is really weird to me because I have the RBR20 set up in access point mode only as I have a Linksys Dual WAN router doing my routing.  Happy to take any suggestions on what I can try to get the wired backhaul working properly.  I'm out of ideas.

 

I did try pairing one satellite with the cable attached directly to the RBR20 and I got a blue light for a while.  But when I moved to to where I need it and plugged it in, it gave me the magenta light and killed the network.  Waiting doesn't seem to fix the problem.  Other than the crappy backhaul problem, I like the system.
