    By RPK353, I assume that you mean the RBR350 router that comes with the RBS350 satellites.

     

    Connect through what? A modem/gateway/ONT? What is it? Make and model?

     

    What happens when you try?

     

    What says no internet?

     

    You might find more on your device in the appropriate section of this community:

  • Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
    Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
    Turn off and unplug modem.
    Turn off router and computers.
    Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
    Turn on computers and rest of network.

     

    Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:
