RBR760 Satellites Wired Backhaul not working through Araknis POE managed switch
Hello, I have an RBR760 router with three RBS760 satellites and arranging the wired backhaul through my Araknis 210 switch has been nothing short of frustrating. Here is where I am at and some hi...

When I did this VLAN config on a NG managed switch, I had my RBS wirelessly connected. Then configured the managed switch for the VLAN and applied the changes. I don't think the switch should need any rebooted or power cycle. After the config was applied, I then connected the RBS via ethernet, one at a time, allowed for 5 minutes to settle in. Then tested each RBS with a phone and pad. However, not sure if same thing will work with a different branded switch, so might be good to find a GS 105 or GS 305 non managed switch to connect the RBS too and be done with it. đ

Okay cool, yeah that was my next move (buying a small un managed switch for the satellites) but I figured I would take one more shot at troubleshooting this specifically with the managed switch.
I have tried the VLAN setup you suggested but it doesn't seem to hold after a reboot like in the other situations. I did however only input the VLAN settings and Apply, I did not restart the switch, do you think that is necessary to truly try the config?
I think I am ordering a small unmanaged switch to run the satellites from and just put this to bed. Thanks for the help.
