Cannot sync extra RBS850 to existing RBK853 system
Hello, I've purchased an additional RBS850 satellite to add to my exiting RBK853 system, when i connect this RBS to my RBR the led indicator turn blue, so there is a connection but this additional ...
Thank you for your reaction.
Problem solved
Complete system was/is wired backhaul.
How may satellites can be connected to the RBR, when it (the RBR itself) is in AP mode?
I've performed a complete new setup of the system.
In the beginning the RBR is in router-mode, and all the satelittes are connected the right way, they are all (3) synced.
But when i put the RBR in AP mode, one sattelite will not connect the right way, it is out of sync.
So i connected first one rbs (when RBR is in AP mode) and synchronized it, than i turned of the power of this rbs (nr. 1), than i connected nr. 2 and also nr. 3 and synchronized them also. When nr. 2 and 3 where connected (up and running) i powered up nr. 1 (it was allready synchronized before) all the 3 rbs are synchronized now. And problem solved!
Log into the one RBS web page seen at that IP address for that RBS and update the FW on the RBS to same version as the rest of the system. RBS need to be at same level of FW.

All the satellites and router have the same FW. I allready updated the FW to the latest version V4.6.9.11 (on all the devices).
But this did not solve the problem.Turn OFF all RBS. Remove the one RBS from the RBRs web page by selecting the REMOVE button. Reboot the RBR. After the RBR is ready and with this one RBS in the same room, resync the RBS to the RBR using the sync buttons on each unit. Give it about 5 minutes. Keep checking the RBRs web page for sync status here.
