RBS850 Satellite Won't Connect

Solved! Or should say resolved. Found both satellites had upgraded their firmware. Set them back to match the router. Then, they started showing up on the web page in a room near the router. After moving them back to the places they had been before, one showed up fine and was in synch. The other was out of sync, but hitting the back of the satellite and the router synced them back up. Fingers crossed this stays "as is" for a while. Thanks for the help Netgear Community!
What Firmware version is currently loaded? Need to make sure FW versions are same on RBS and RBR.

However, my two RBS750 satellites will not show up as connected (in app or on browser). They do power up, flash white, and then go to solid blue for a couple minutes. Here's what I've done:
Moved them closer to router.
Left them in their distant locations that worked fine prior.
Hit the sync button on back of router and satellites.
Tried "add a satellite" feature in app.
Hit the sync button on satellites and browser (failed)
Used paperclip to do factory reset.
With all of the above, they turn on, flash white, then go to solid blue for a couple minutes before the light goes off. But, I can't see them in app or on the browser as connected devices.
Help please. Thanks.
