RBS850 Satellite Won't Reset and in Continuous Reboot
I have a satellite that seems to be in constant reboot (it will flash white lights for a few minutes, then go to solid blue for a few minutes, then go off, only to go back to flashing white about 5-1...

Did you try removing the one disconnected RBS from the RBRs web page, reboot the RBR then onces it's back to ready, press the sync button on the RBS and RBS while the RBS is in same room as the RBR? I would turn OFF the other RBS before you do this.

I successfully updated the firmware of both satellites and router and power cycled everything, and unfortunately I'm having the same issue with the satellite of it rebooting itself (flashing white light for a period of time before going to blue and then no light for a period of time, then back to the flashing whites). Any other next steps to try? Thanks for the help!

Factory reset the RBS and when it starts to blink WHITE, turn it OFF.
Turn OFF the other RBS.
Bring this one RBS to same room as the RBR
Log into the RBRs web page and select REMOVE button on the row under Connected Devices.
Reboot the RBR.
When the RBR is ready, turn ON the RBS, when it starts to pulsate WHITE, press the sync button on the RBS then on the RBR. Give 5 minutes...hoping this will fully sync and the RBS front LED will turn BLUE then shut off after 3 minutes.
Let us know what happens here...

I took these steps and it seemed to work better for a few days, but is unfortunately now back into the reboot cycle like it was before. Any thoughts? Thanks for all the help!
