RBE971 crashed, will not power back up
Purchased a Orbi WiFi 7 router and two satellites in late November 2024. Generally, the devices and network have worked well. Yesterday, however, the router suddenly went down, and I’ve been unable ...
Please try a Power adapter from one of the other RBS to see if the RBR powers On. Possible the adapter failed.
Let us know if the power LED turns ON in back and goes green?
Yesterday, however, the router suddenly went down, and I’ve been unable to power it back up. The power outlet was live and I tried the router on several other working outlets, but no sign of life. I’ve tried resets and a full power cycle restart. Again, nothing; neither the Power LED nor the Router LED show any light at all.

Good check. Seems that the RBR has failed. Might find a used on Amazon or fleebay maybe...
