RBS850 is removed from 'attached devices' when I connect another device via wire

Besure your using good quality LAN cable, cat6 is recommended.

Hi all,

I have a RBR850 and satellite (RBS850) since a year. Last week I purchased another satellite (RBS850) to further extend my wifi coverage.

 

The second satellite has been synced with the router (Connection Type = 5G, backhaul status is good). So far so good. However, as soon as I connect a device wired to my second satellite (e.g. my Sonos 5) - using one of the Gigabit ports, the new satellite disappears from my list of attached devices. The satellite is however not disconnected from my network, because I can still reach it (by navigating to it's IP address). When I disconnect my Sonos, the satellite appears again in my list of attached devices (with a delay of a few minutes maybe).

 

Additional info:

• The RBR850 is configured as AP;
• All three devices have the latest firmware (V3.2.16.22_1.4.9);
• The first satellite is connected via wire - directly to the RBR850 (no switch in between);
• The first satellite also has other devices connected via wired using its gigabit ports - no issue there;
• I did a full reset of all three devices and started all over again - it didn't help;

Any ideas what I could have done wrong or what I should check?

 

Thanks!
