Having issues adding 2 pack to newly set up 3 pack
I just purchased an AX6000, 3 pack, over the weekend and set it up successfully with zero issues. Guess I wrongly assumed that adding a 2 pack of the same generation would be as seamless… I’ve tried m...
Need to make sure all RBS are loaded with same version of firmware as the main RBR unit.
Ok sounds simple enough, but am I able to do this the simplest way I see using just my phone by adding a new orbi system, with the new router and sat. To update the firmware, via the app. And then removing them
From that new network and try adding them
As additional Sats to the existing system with my first 3?

Ya set up the 2nd system normally and get the RBS updated.
Might give this a try with a wired PC or laptop but if phone and orbi app work to get that system online and updated, go for it.- Gotcha, going to try with my phone first bc it seems to be doing fine. But if I can’t successfully for some reason will use my notebook. Now the question is, once I finish setting up the secondary systems router and sat. I’ve already updated firmware on router, will see if it does it for Sat when it finds it. But after that is all done do I then just go back to first system and steal them away by just clicking add Sat for each? Or is there something else left to do? Sorry for the questions, hoping this isn’t too big of an issue..
Yes, you'll need to disconnect the 2nd set of RBS from the RBR. Them put the 1st RBR online, I'd leave the 1st set of RBS OFF. Then with the 2nd RBS set in same room as 1st RBR, sync them using the RBRs Add Satellite feature. One at a time.
