850 new satellite syncs but doesn't show up in list of connect devices

1. The 4th satellite does not appear in the connected satellites
2. I have not done that, as it will mean taking down servers that update data every five minutes, but I will if I have to.
3 & 4. Syncing was done via webpage. That is :
go to web program item "add new satellite" and follow the provided instructions which sequentially are (i) boot up satellite, (ii) press satellite sync button, (iii) click on the webpage next button.
The satellite syncs blue but never shows on the web page.
I have been wondering if I should use the router sync button instead of the webpage and I think that will be my next step.
Further advice always appreciated.
Wondering if you generate a new BH password on the RBR, then re-sync using the RBRs Add Satellite feature, if this would get the 4th RBS to appear in the Connected Satellite section.
You'll have to re-sync the other RBS if you try this. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Unfortunately that didn't work either. Might be a rebuild the network thing. Sigh.
Wondering if this one RBS is faulty. 🤔
