Synching old RBS50 satellite with new RBK753S-100NAS router?
Hi - previously I was using a NETGEAR Orbi Tri-band Whole Home Mesh WiFi System with 3Gbps Speed (RBK50). I replaced that system with the NETGEAR Orbi Whole Home Mesh WiFi 6 System with Advanced Cyber Security, 3-pack RBK753S-100NAS.
Everything is working well with the RBK753S-100NAS which is running firmware v3.21.16.6.
I was wondering if it is possible to pair the old RBS50 (satellite, not the router) with the new RBK753S-100NAS so that I would have three satellites in total.
I have been reset the firmware to factory default on the RBS50. I have attached it via ethernet to my home system and it it transmitting the factory WiFi SSID - OrbiXX. Is there any way to change that SSID to the same SSID I am using for my home network so that it is one consistent name for all devices? I would note, while the SSID is broadcasting the satellite has not been added as a satellite to my Orbi Network Map.
I have tried to login using https://orbiloggin.com/ but neither factory default password or the password for accessing the admin console which I created allow access.
Would you have any suggestions as to how to access the RBS50 to change the SSID and to add the RBS50 to my Orbi Network Map?
