Reset RBS350

The satellites (RBS350) regularly malfunction (purple/blue lighting). I can only solve this by disconnecting the satellites from power. is there a setting to activate so that the satellite automatically resets.

  • What Firmware version is currently loaded on the RBR and RBS?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
    Be sure your using a good quality LAN cable between the modem and router. CAT6 is recommended. 

     

    How many RBS are deployed? 
    What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
    What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR📡 and RBS🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wired or wirelessly connected.

    What channel configurations are currently set on the router?  
    Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

     

    RBS should not be reset or need any frequent rebooting. If this is happening then there is a problem that needs to be figured out.
