First of all, thank you for your reply & time.
I hardwired , as suggested, the old satellite into the new router, but it did NOT work; the led of the satellite, after blinking white, remained red.

However, any other piece of advice?
If you hardwire into the satellite, you should be able to access it at 192.168.1.250
make sure its running the same version of firmware thats on the router (but the satellite version)
