11/21/25 AM. The saga continues. First thing this morning, nothing is working. Although the LED lights all suggest normal operation, even bringing a device to within a few feet of the RBR does not connect it to the RBR signal. I rebooted the RBR x2 and devices slowly connected only to the RBR, a distance of 50-55 feet, with nothing connecting to the one satellite, which is closer to the RBR by about 20 feet.) Eventually, after a long hiatus (I did not reboot the satellite) the satellite LED showed a magenta color, then blue. Devices then connected to the satellite.
For the moment, everything seems to be working appropriately, although the reliability of this system is not what I have come to expect of Netgear over the years (and I have been a Netgear customer for MANY years).
