Can you do same thing with this one RBS connected to the back of the RBR? If it will connect see if it's given an IP address and if so, can you access the RBS web page at all?
I have no idea how to connect to the RBS webpage, I could take the non working RBS thats just flashing white and then plug this directly to the RBR via ethernet and see what it says.
Pull up the RBRs Connected devices page. Have it at the ready when you connect the RBS to the RBR. A IP address should appear next the RBS that you connected. Use this IP address in a web browser to see if it will pull up the RBS web page.
I have taken the RBS thats just flashing and plugged it directly into the RBR.
I then took the IP address and popped it online and i just get a spinning ball as per the third picture.So selecting the Firmware Upgrade seen on that page doesn't do anything?
Lets see if you can do this:
Have the RBS FW file at the ready on your wired PC.
What you need to do is factory reset the RBS. Wire connect a PC to the 1st satellite📡. Already have the most current FW version files downloaded on to this PC.
Wire connect 1 PC to the back of the RBS. Factory reset the RBS, wait about 5 minutes. The PC will get a IP address from the satellite📡. The RBS will be 192.168.1.250. Use this IP address in a web browser to log in to the satellites web page. Log in as admin and password. Use the satellites 📡 web page FW update feature to select the FW update file that was unpacked from the .zip file.
