Ghost Satellites on ORBI RBR850
I have an RBR 850 router and 4 x RBS satellites. All has been well for two years. Suddenly, this week new Ghost satellites have started to appear on the app. I have read through other posts on this subject and factory reset the entire system. More ghosts started appearing after 24 hours. Is there a known fix for this?
Got a picture of this?
What app? RBR web page or Orbi app?
What Firmware is loaded on the RBS and RBR?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router 📡 and satellite(s)🛰️?How are the RBS connected to the RBR? Wirelessly or ethernet?
Only a factory reset of the RBS and RBR clears known issues with Ghost RBS appearing.

Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
