I can't sync RBR850 with RBS853
Hi evren body I had RBR850 router working fine with its RBS850 but the coverage was not good so I bought used package RBK853 to add 2 satellites to existing system .but I failed to synchronize them ...
You can get FW here:
Would be best to update the new 2nd system first by connecting the new system offline from the modem. You dont' need the system connected at all to the ISP modem. Update the RBS to v.5 then the RBR lastly.
After the new system has been updated, update your system as well. RBS first then RBR lastly.
After All is updated, the 2nd system RBS should then connect to the 1st system. I would turn off the 1st system RBS while you get the new RBS connected to the 1st RBR.
Have you tried hardwiring the rbs850's into the primary router and syncing them that router? Make sure when you sync them to have the same firmware versions. (shouldn't matter but some have found it helps)
yes I did connect one satellite with router by ethernet cable, but same problem
