RBK752 Satellite LED behavior
The LED light on my satellite turns on at random times. I thought this was just an initial synching thing. Anyone know if this is normal or what it means?

What is the color sequence and flashing pattern?
Can also be a reboot after a momentary power glitch. These satellites are very power sensitive. Mine haven't rebooted randomly since connecting them to UPSs.- BarryNAspirant
Thanks for your reply.
The LED shines blue for a few minutes and then turns off
It could be the backhaul connection from the satellite/router going from fair/good/unable to connect.

What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
