Installed on RBK853 and everything seems fine so far.
Just used automagic install and everything went smoothly.
Backed up configuration before and after update - also manually downloaded firmware prior to update - I like to have options should things go south.

Hi,
I have the RBR853, I updated the firmware to the latest via my phone app and my 2 satellites did not show up, they are connected wired. I did a factory reset and try to sync them again but nothing. So I took the satellite closer to the router and re-sync them again at it works, I did it while connected wired and it shows the connection was wired. I repeat the steps to the other unit and it works but when I move then back to their location and connected them wired they show that they are offiline. I know cables are good since it was working before and I tested then by connecting my laptop and I dont have any issues. Any clue what it is happening. When they connected they were showing the latest firmware 4.6.7.13.
Thanks

Ensure the RBS were updated prior to updating the RBR and make sure the RBS were updated.
Ensure the RBS are wirelessly connected to the RBR first, then while near or in same room as RBR, ethernet connect each RBS to the back of the RBR and check to ensure they get connected via ethernet.
What CAT# cable are you using? CAT6 is recommended.
Any LAN switches or patch panels in between the RBS and RBR when they are in there remote locations?

I updated to 4.6.7.13 today, RBR850 with 2 RBS850 satellites. I did it manually. So far speeds are fine Internet -0 router and using Speedtest app. The only issue I see are the attached devices list and the access control list at orbilogin.net are really messed up - it shoulws a wireless laptop on the third floor connected to the router in the basement, but I knowe it's not - it's got a 5GHz connection, and speedtext of over 300Mbps which would not happen with a router that far away.
Other examples, it shows the laptop I am typing on, which is Eth connected to a switch and into the router, as connected to a satellite. The wired connection is working, I verified in settings and speed test.It shows our Ring Chime as wired when it is not. Sll 3 printers in our offices on the 3rd floor show as connected to the router in the basement. The Access list shows under the "disconnected" list a hardware computer!
That's the only problem I see., I did do a full power cycle of router for 2 minutes, then satellites, but it looks the same. But these 2 lists are a mess, and they were find under 4.6.3 (I think what I was on, no beta versions).
Maybe they will straighten out. Should I do a Sync or anything?

Screen captures would be helpful.
Might give it some time to settle in.
