RBR850 - Satellite shows it has a wired connection when it does not.
Hello, I connected my satellites while wired and then disconnected them and placed them throughout the house. This morning I noticed one of them shows up in the network map as a wired device, whi...
Here is the screen capture
What firmware version is loaded on the RBS and RBR.
Firmware is V7.2.6.31
IF the system is working, should be ok.
The system is working, so I'm not overly concerned, just curious.
How many RBS are deployed? 1 Router and 2 Satellites
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft? 5,100 Sq. Ft.
What is the distance between the router About 40 feet between the router and the satellite that shows it is hard wired (but it is not) and about 6- feet from the router to the satellite that shows it is wired. (a number of walls are between both satellites and the router)
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router and satellite(s) been performed since last update? Yes
Thank you.
I presume the Guest RBS is the one that is actually wirelessly connected and shows wire connected in the Orbi app?
Might try this later on, Power off both RBS, swap RBS locations with each other then power ON one at a time, see if the Guest RBS mis-connection type shown clears or follows the one RBS.
