Hello rk_gearorbi ,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that your satellite does not connect to your Orbi router. This issue can be caused by having a different firmware installed on your router. The current firmware for your RBS350 is version 7.2.6.31.
Please update your satellite to this firmware to resolve this issue!

I have an Orbi Satellite RBS350. I have done a reset on it. The satellite does not connect to the network it was part of. Now the ring light remains at Magenta Solid. I do not know what to do. It does not show up in the admin page. So I cannot manually upgrade the firmware as well. Any ideas what to do? It seems the satellite just does not find a way to connect to the router and does not get an IP address.
