And thats after a factory reset on the RBS and it not connected to anything accpet for the one wired PC? Be sure to clear out all browser caches? Would need to turn OFF the RBR.
Last resort is to try a 30-30-30 reset on the RBS.

Thanks for your help. I have tried to connect to the satellite using an ethernet adapter (TP USB-C to Ethernet) on a MacBook Pro. It appears that what is detected is the adapter and not the satellite. I have not be able to access the satellite via the IP address even though I see a Blue status light when it is hardwired for about 30 seconds. I have used 192.168.1.250 which is what I think you mean. I have reset and rebuilt the network, cycled the network etc. I am sure it is the F/W unfortunately cannot crack how to update the satellite.

Thank you for the coaching; still no success.
Interestingly what I do see is that the satellite which is a replacement for a failed satellite shows up in the known network list (ORBI75). The actual network is ORBI92.
I cannot access it; I assume as it is not connected to actual network. It is hardwired into the Mac Laptop.
I am very thankful for the advice you have provided so far.Firmware: V7.2.6.21_5.0.20
