Satelite stays in Config Sync
Hi, I replaced the Netgear RBW30/Orbi AC2200 at my dad's with a new RBR350/Orbi AX1800 system. Setup went well, but the satelite stays in state "Config Sync". Also wifi connectiviy seems spot...

Hi,
Thanks for your extensive reply.
They both have the same firmware.
I'll do the re-sync when they are close together, before moving the satellite to a remote location.
Is a complete factory default of both devices needed/advised in this case?
Any other thing to do or check while I'm there?

Yes I would reset and press the sync buttons on the RBS then RBR while near the RBR. Should sync. Give a couple of minutes and look for the front LED should turn BLUE.

Resetting both devices to factory default andvrevonfiguring them, was enough to get everything to work correctly. Thanks for your tips!
One other quick question.
I can't seem to get the RBR50 to accept traffic on port 433, so I can administer it from outside(yes, I am aware of the risks;-))
With the old system, this worked flawlessly by just redirecting the port to the internal IP-address of the router, but that doesn't seem to work.
I know I can use the app, but that doesn't really give me much options.
Hope you know how to do this.
