I literally placed the satellite almost right next to the router. The RBS does NOT appear in the RBRs web page at all.

Try at least 10 feet away from the RBR. Next to the RBR is too close.
Is a prior RBS entry on the RBRs web page exist or nothing is seen here?
Press the sync button on the RBS then on the RBR and let it sync.

Be sure the FW on the RBS is the same as whats on the RBR.
3 meters is a good distance to do a initial sync to the RBR while in same room as the RBR.
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
