Status/Firmware Upd shows 1 Satellite - but there are 2 connected
I have a RBK853 system (two satellites). One is wired, one is wireless. On the main page it says I have one satellite (the wireless one) and when I try and check for new FW it only shows one, but...

That didn't help, but thanks for the suggestion - it made sense to test that.
In the end (in desparation) I factory reset the whole thing - satellites, main router, the lot.

This only happens when it's wired.
If I disconnect the hard wire and connect it wirelessly, then there's no problem at all and it shows two devices.

Is the wired RBS directly connected to the back of the RBR or is there a LAN swtich in between the RBR and RBS?

There's a switch - but there always has been.
I switched the main device from Router to Access Point, and this has occured ever since.
