Did you first update the 2nd system to same FW verion that is currently on your existing system, then once thats done, power OFF the 2nd system, then power on the one RBS you wanna connect to the existing system and press the sync button on the RBS then select Add Satellite on the existing systems RBR Web page using a wired PC and web browser, to see if it will sync?

Netgear tech support told me the only solution to the app problem is doing a reset on the router and starting over. REALLY don't want to do that and potentially break a otherwise working system to just add a satellite. REALLY frustrated at this point.
