Impossible to connect a third RBS750 to my RBR750
Hello experts,
I've currently a RBR750 to which 2 RBS750 are connected and it works well.
A baught a third RBS750 but I can't connect it to the RBR750 even by placing it at 1m and following the sequence in the app (switch ON and push synch on both router and satellite).
I saw that the router can accept only 2 daisy chain but don't understand what it means.
Does that mean that I need to synch 2 satellites each other instead of trying to connect a third satellite to the router? If yes how to do it?
Can someone help me?
Thanks

What Firmware version is currently loaded on the existing system?
For new and incoming RBS, those need to be updated to same version of firmware as the exisiting Orbi system first, then the new RBS should connect.
You'll need to follow this guide on how to access the new RBS self service web page to get the firmware updated: Orbi Satellite (RBS) Self-Service Web Page Access | NETGEAR Communities
I recommend turning OFF all other RBS while you work with the new RBS and get it updated then connected to the RBR, once connected, then turn ON the other RBS.
sometimes it helps to hardwire in a satellite to update and sync it. I'd try that option
