What's the status show on the RBS web page. 

There are some known issues happening with Orbi app which maybe falsely reporting router operation.

    Id you first downgrade the RBS then the RBR lastly?

     

    Does pressing the reset button for 15 seconds then release and connect a wired PC to the RBR should bring up the setup wizard at HTTP and 192.168.1.1 in a web browser?

      I tried to factory reset, and got to install everything again, without any changes, so i wouldnt recomend that, knowing that it's only is a waste of time. (in my case)

       

      I downgraded to the "new downgrade" NG posted and still nothing changed (RBS first, RBR second). Ill wait, and to see if Ng figures something out, otherwise its another brand i have to use.

       

      Thanks for your help and reply.
