What is the Mfr and model# of the host router the RBR router is connected too?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Are you using Dynamic or Static IP addressing for the RBR in AP mode?

Hi,
My network setup like this :
ISP moderm -> Draytek Vigor 2926
-> Netgear Prosafe Switch 24 port (unmanaged and cheapest one) -> Rbr750 at AP dynamic IP .
I connect 3 of the satellite to the switch by wired and one near the RBR750 with wireless.
I can see all those satellite in RBR750 admin page but it doesn't sync.
And i don't know why the satellite3 is do wireless backhaul instead of wire backhaul .
Sorry for my bad English

To get this working right you need to connect the RBS to the back of the RBR, not in parallel:
- JustbeniceJun 20, 2021AspirantThank you!
I'v read that topic few times already, but the problem is this network setup were working good with my old Netgear RBK23. And after i upgrade to RBK754 and it did not work any more.
And this kind of network setup also work if i set my RBR750 as Router. It only stop working when i change the RBR750 to AP.- FURRYe38Jun 20, 2021Guru - Experienced User
For router or AP mode, RBS still need to be connected bahind the RBR, no in parallel.
