Orbi RBK752 Satellite Seems power up every morning
I have the satellite set up in my storage in backyard, about 80 ft away from the router. Every morning when I walk into the storage with my cellphone (WiFi only), I notice the satellite LED is in solid white status for a while.
My question is: the satellite is sleeping overnight while there is no activity?

Should not be ON at all.
What channels are you using on the RBR?
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Has a power OFF of the RBR and RBS for 5 minutes then back ON been performed?
- DaShengAspirantThanks for your reply. I turned off the light and close the door to took a close look at the LED with my kid together. She said it was not white but yellow. And I also noticed that when the door was opened it was fine. I guessed it was the humidity in the OSB board due to recent rainy days. So it was the connectivity between the satellite and the router.

AH ok...might try some difference placement or a bit closer in distance to the RBR.
Hopefully thats all it was.
Enjoy.
