Hi again,
so I did follow your advice and added 2 RBS750 satellites. Still no devices connecting to the 2 new ones (I have set them up and let them sit since Saturday).
I have just turned off the initial satellite from the original set with the router and rebooted the router. I have carried my cell phone to the most Western corner of the house where I have put satellite #3 (which shows as connected via daisy chain to sat #2 with GHz with a good backhaul status on the web app). The router is in the most Eastern corner of the house. The phone cannot find the network 😞 It's been there for a good 5-10 mins, no dice. What might be going on? Should I open a new thread? TIA!

Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
