I have since added a further 2 x #RBS760 satellites to my set-up.
They have connected to the network with no problem and are showing in the network map, however, they are not sharing the SSID and Password the original router and satellite use.
You have to log on to each #RBS750 satellite individually with the local name and password detailed on each unit, and you get great wifi once logged in locally.
I have made sure I have the latest software updates and have tried disconnecting, factory resetting, and reconnecting as suggested in other posts but I have had no luck.
Are there any advanced settings I need to administer to make the 760 Satellites share SSID and PW with the 750 Router and satellite?
Thank you
