Problem connecting and accessing RBS850
Hi, I have problem connecting rbs850 with rbr850 router. I moved the system to another location and at the same time reset the all the devices. During the initiliazation and setup process, I pre...
Hi again,
I just noticed the instructions to connect to router via telnet (tfpd64) and update the firmware through that.
However, the instructions are for a router and not a satellite, is it possible to update the satellite this way? Still the same problem as originally though, I don't know which IP address to put in order to connect to the satellite...
Try 192.168.10.250 and see?
Does the RBS not get any IP address from the RBR if you ethernet connect it directly to the back of the RBR?
If you factory reset the RBS and leave it for 5 minutes, connect up one wired PC to the back of the RBS, set a static IP address configuration the wired PC for 192.168.10.49, can you access the RBS web page at all at 192.168.10.250 in a browser?
Hi,
Thank you for the quick reply!
Sorry it took me a while to have time to test it again. But the results are unfortunately still the same I cannot access the RBS850. I again factory resetted the RBS850 and then setup static ip for my laptop and after over 5min (RBS850 had constant white light) tried to access it with address 192.168.10.250 (also 192.168.1.250) without any luck. Then I tried to wire it directly to RBR850 and that didn't either do trick RBR850 cannot see anything but the other working sattlite (RBS750). I don't know why but after connecting it directly ro RBR850 one thing was different the RBS850 had constant blue light on it, but I still wasn't able too see it anywhere in Orbi router attached devices list.
Have you got any other suggestions or is the satellite bricked?
One more thing that I noticed...
Could it be a problem with ethernet ports of the RBS850 because when accessing the router via wired connection from laptop there is no issue and the lights of the ethernet adaptor of the laptop blink all the time but when connecting the RBS850 wired the lights don't blink at all. I tried the nmrpflash tool but same thing it only tells that the ethernet cable is unplugged. Does it matter in which of the four ports of the RBS850 I connect the cable?
