MK83 - Satellite Will Not Connect
I have a "NETGEAR Nighthawk Tri-band Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 System (MK83) - AX3600 Router with 2 Satellite Extenders, Coverage up to 6,750 sq. ft. and 40+ devic" system and 1 addon MS80 satellite. ...
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Hi FURRYe38,
Great suggestion. I did as you described. I was able to access the addon satellite while hard wired and it has the same firmware version as the rest of the devices which is the latest version (1.1.7.12). Should I try reinstalling the firmware on the satellite or is there something else I should try next? Thanks for your help!
Latest is v.14:
I would get these files downloaded first, update ALL MS first by directly uploading the MS FW file to the MS web page, then update the MR lastly.
Ah, the update checker wasn't finding this new version. I went ahead and downloaded the updates and updated each device manually. I don't have physical access to the equipment at the moment but will disconnect the addon satellite from hardwire and see if it syncs up. I'll be back in touch. Thanks again!
