Cannot log onto Satellite (RBS-850)
My Orbi network consists of an RBR-850 router and 3 x RBS-850s. They work fine, but.... I cannot log onto one of the satellites... It is connected, is working, but when I go to the IP address...

And does admin and "password" work for the log in?
I presume you updated all RBS manually by using the FW file and the RBS web page to update the FW on the RBS?
And this happens with all other browsers? MS Edge or Fire Fox or Opera?

It does not accept any username/password including my systems nor admin/password
I have tried it wirelessly, hardwired, reset, rebooted and it does not act like the other two RBS's.
It was updated to current firmware via manual update when -- for a short moment -- I could log onto the satellite yesterday and then it went ghost again.
Like I said, the satellite works, I just cannot log on to it.
I wonder if something inside of the satellite has failed.
No other browser works. Firewalls, etc disabled.
Two work fine, this one does not.

Wow. Ok, last resort would be to do a 30-30-30 reset on the RBS.
Sounds like the creds are not getting populated or something in nvram is corrupt for this log in and creds area.
Or try a factory reset on the RBR and setup from scratch with this 3rd RBS.

And magically it is working again. Will keep an eye on it.. perhaps a synch issue or something that needed catching up, but all appears to be working perfectly now.
Thank you for your help.
