Sync the RBS using the sync button in back on the RBS then RBR.
Did this started recently?

Uninstall the app, reboot device then reinstall app.

What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?Arris, Model # TG1672G, using when first installed. No upgrades recently
Did this started recently? Yes, only after turning off system 3 times, last in late August.
What version of the orbi app are you using? Version 2.11.6.0
Does this happend on different mobile devices? Only have one phone w Orbi app--had worked seamlessly before.
Uninstall the app, reboot device then reinstall app. Done already by re-installing app and then rebooting but can try in this sequence
Do the RBS appear on the RBRs web page? Yes, appears to pair (blue light) but not will not sync
What mode is the modem working in? Bridge or router mode? This model modem has a built in router FYI.
Possible that this maybe a Orbi app issue...
Modem has settings that came when gotten--router. Have never used as a router, always w NG router/access point--current ORBI is upgrade from Nighthawk that worked well for some time. Currently one of the satellites is recognizing two devices--an ipad and my iphone, but this info doesnt show up on ORBI app as before. Will try to remove and reboot and then re-install app.
