SXR30 Satellite using backhaul over Ethernet will not auto upgrade firmware
My SXr30 and the SXS30 that is Wireless Connected Satellite will auto upgrade firmware. But my 1 Satellite connected via Ethernet Backhaul will not seem to auto upgrade. Anyone seen this ? Rega...

SXS30 is connected via switch.
Should it be plugged into SXR30 directly? if so then Lan configuration would need to be default for that port correct ?

What is the brand and model# of this switch?
What CAT# LAN cables are you using? CAT6 is recommended.
I'm currently using my SXK30 in AP mode. SXS30 is connected to the SXR with NGs GS-105/108 series switches in between.

Netgear GS724TPP Switch.
no vlan tags on ports
Any way I was able to connect all the sat via wireless and all is working as described.
I will revisit this when the new classrooms are finished they will be cat 6 connected to the switch or Directly to the Router.

Ok. That's a managed switch. Seen some manages switches cause problems for some users. One user mentioned years ago about disabling all IGMP protocols on these switches was a solution. Might give this a try. Not sure if Orbi pro would be affected in same way as Orbi Home though. Also seen some switches with Green Ethernet features cause problems as well, tough I was given feedback about Orbi Pro shouldn't be bothered by this. Otherwise give a non managed switch a try between the SXR and SXS.

Yes they cause issues we had to disable the port disabling features for the ports ORBI are connected it appears the switch see them as loops.
It took me like 3 hours to find a resources that understood the switch after it was installed and started to disable port after port that router was connected to.
Switch was supplied by VOIP contractor.We had just old JGS524E before no issues!
Technology got to love it.Bryan
