Lost both Satellites when changing from Router to AP RBR850
I had my RBR850 configured as a router and have 2 x RBS850's attached and they were working fine. I recently change the configuration on the RBR850 from Router to AP as I am using a different router ...
They are both running over wireless and from the primary router it is going to one of the Orbi's LAN ports. I didn't think to try it from the WAN port but will try that today.
Are they hardwired in or running over wireless?
With the orbi in AP mode, do you have it going from the primary router to the orbi routers WAN port?

Correct, in ap mode the primary router should run to the Orbi router's wan port.
That solved my problem, thanks for the responce, I really appreciate it.

Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
