RBS860 does not react
Dear Community,
after I added another RBS860 to my RBR860 (router + 2 satellites) - which was itself quite a challenge as I had to reset all of the devices.
Now the additional satellite doesn't react anymore. The power LED is continously orange. The RBS860 doesn't react to:
- remove power cable - reconnect power
- press reset button for 10 sec
- use 30/30/30 method
Still no reaction...just a lonely constant orange light.
Are the any other possibilities to reset the RBS? What else shall I do to get the RBS back into my network?
Thanks a lot!

Yes, the RBS has had (until it "went of grid") the same FW version as the other satellites in my network. Doesn't sound that good - to replace a satellite half a year after the warranty has ended. Especially considering the price of such a device. :-/
Thanks!
If you updated the new RBS to same version of FW as on existing system, and did all the troubleshooting, then the RBS maybe faulty and would need to be replaced.
