Orbi BRK-752 Satellite not connecting when router is in access point mode

Hi,
I am trying to use the BRK-752 as an Access Point mesh (router and satellite).
In "Route" mode the Satellite sync without any issues and works. However, when I put the router in "AP" mode I can't get the Satellite to sync with the router to act as a AP mesh. They are both connected via wire (wire backhaul) to the same switch.
Not sure if this configuration is possible, but I have not seen any documentation that says it can or cannot be done.

 

Firmware: V4.6.3.16_2.0.51

 


Am I missing something ?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with Orbi AX and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:
