Devices connected to Satellite RBS850 loses WLAN connection
Hello all, have a RBS850 in the attic. This is connected by wire to the LAN. Since I moved the RBR850 router to a different location in the basement, the devices connected to the RBS850 keep losing ...

I think the problem is solved. I have not experienced another wifi outage since 24 hrs. I have deactivated the RBS850 again and reactivated it after about an hour. During the activation I pressed the reset button. In difference I used a paper clip and not the wire which I had used before. I was clearly paying attention to whether the button was responding or not. It takes about 20 minutes until the RBS850 was back online. I thank everyone for the support. If I do not contact you again the problem is solved.

My assumption is that the RBS850 connects to the RBR850 via WLAN and thus the problem occurs.
This RBS850 remains connected to the router with Ethernet cable after the router was moved?
Does the web administration Attached Devices show the satellite connection as Wired?
