Orbi Ax6000
For the love of god someone help me before I launch it haha,
I’ve a AX6000 with satellite, today I’ve purchased an additional satellite and I cannot get it connected, pressing the sync button, I’ve tried them side by side and at a distance, I’m stumped!

Need to make sure same FW thats on on the current system gets loaded on the incoming new alien RBS.
Try ethernet connecting the 2nd RBS to the back of the RBR and see if it gets a ip address from the RBR, if it does, then log into the RBS web page using that IP address and log in info maybe admin and password. Update the FW to whats on the current system using a web browser.

- Thank you for the prompt response, think I understand about 80% of that, I’ll go as far as I can and report back if/when I get stuck, see you in about 5 mins 😂
Have the FW file downloaded to you PC already. Links are at the top of this forum for the 850 series system.
- Thank you 🙏🏻, you nailed it!
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
