Poor sat status but blue light
Installed the 852 system 2 weeks ago and updated to the latest FW during install. All seems to be fine but satellite backhaul status says "poor" even though I get a blue light and broadband speed is near my subscribed service speeds. Is it possible to have a poor backhaul status but not realize any degradation of service? The satellite is about 50 ft away from the router with 3 walls (2 of them Hardi-plank) in between them.

Be sure the FW updated to same version on RBS as the RBR.
Try moving the RBS a bit closer to the RBR. There maybe some building materials that are impacting the signal in between thus causing a Poor status. I have one of mine a basement. Though about 30 feet in between. See some POOR status but thats due to the concrete and steel and my RBS is up on 2nd level.
