Orbi Satellite connected to Ethernet and showing up in orbilogin menu but no internet
Hi all, the header pretty much sums it up - my router is working fine, my wifi is fine, and the satellite shows up as "wired, connected, backhaul good" but it wont show up when I am trying to connect to wifi standing next to it. Any suggestions welcome! Thank you!

What model Orbi do you have?
How is the RBS ethernet connected to the back of the RBR? Directly to the back or is there a ethernet patch panel or a LAN switch in between? https://kb.netgear.com/000051205/What-is-Ethernet-backhaul-and-how-do-I-set-it-up-on-my-Orbi-WiFi-System 📡
What CAT# lan cable are you using between the RBR and RBS? CAT6 is recommended.
Wirelessly connect the RBS to the RBR. Does a wireless device get internet services then?
