Hello panthorpan ,
Thank you for the shout-out! One thing to check is that your satellites are on the same firmware as the router. Let me and Blanca_O look into how best to do this and provide an update once we have more information for you.
Best,
Christine

ChristineT Blanca_O Thank you, please keep me posted. Currently I do not have a way to look at what firmware version the satellites are as they don't appear on the app or via orbilogin.com. My router is on the version V4.6.5.14_2.0.54.

What happens if you connect the RBS via ethernet cable to the back of the RBR?

If I connect them via an ethernet cable the lights turn blue but the satellites wont sync.
