RBSE960 Satellite disappears after connecting to wired backhaul
I have the RBKE 960 with two satellites. The satellites were working fine with wireless backhaul. Today, I tried to connect one of the satellites to wired ethernet cable (connected to the 2.5 Gbps po...
Is not Orbi configuration or backhaul that's the problem, is the switch your using. This is a managed or semi managed switch, Also there maybe some other items on this switch that's probably blocking the sync data between the RBR and RBS. Managed switches have been known to cause problems historically with Orbi systems.
The remove switch statement was to help you test to make sure the RBS are connecting and being reported correctly with out the switch in the mix.
What Rev is the switch? A, B or C?And since the switch is only a 1Gb switch, I would connect the RBS to the switch using the RBS 1Gb connection ports and connect the switch to the RBRs 1GB connection port as well. Try testing this configuration.
What is the model# of this switch?
Remove this switch.
Try each RBS connection directly to the RBR. You should see both listed one at a time.
NG's XS505M and GS110MX work great with the 9 series.
The Netgear documentation of the router says that I can connect router and satellite to the same switch for wired backhaul. This is what I am trying to do.
The switch is Dlink 1210-28. I will try direct connection just for testing, but there should be no need to remove the switch.
