Orbi RBS850
Hi All, I own a RBR850 with 2 sattelites for 2 years and works amazing. Yesterday I bought a 3th sattelite to cover a bigger area (Garden for my lawnrobot) and been trying since then to add it t...
I connected the RBS850 directly to the desktop, but was not able to connect it through the IP-address.
I switched off my complete network while resetting and connecting.

How did you choose the IP address to use in the web browser.
- I saw people with similar issues and they used a certain IP address to access the router.

Apologies on the late feedback.
I'm able to login through the URL on my main system, but not on the new sattelite.
If I try to link the new sattelite the colour at the end of the sync turns yellow which means it was added.
If I afterwards check linked devices I can't see the new sattelite.
Do I need to give it time? Or do I need to update the new sattelite to the latest firmware before it's able to be connected to the hub + other sattelites? If so, how can I do this?
