The router and one of the satellites are running V4.6.5.14. I can't tell which version the disconnected satellite is running. I'm making a guess that it may be a different version and that's why it's showing as disconnected, but I really don't know for sure. It was working fine for almost 2 years. It's only been in the last month or so that it went offline.

Ya and if it won't connect even to the RBR via ethernet, maybe hard to find out.
Only thing you might try, update the RBS thats is working first to v.2 then RBR lastly, and hoping that maybe the 2nd RBS will either connect wirelessly or via ethernet.
I wish NG had not taken away the RBS self web page service. Argh.

Isn't there a way to perform a factory reset? I'm pushing and holding the reset button until the light starts flashing amber. It does reboot but when it comes back up it has remembered the previous settings like the name I gave it, so I don't think it's doing a hard reset.

Either use the ERASE button on the RBRs web page to reset it. I prefer this method. Pressing the Reset button for 20 seconds on the RBR or RBS should reset either one...
