RBS750 Doesn't act as a satellite anymore

Hello, my satellite doesn't act as a satellite/extender anymore. No devices can connect to it wireless but the ethernet ports work just fine. I've tried resetting both the router (CBR750) and the satellite (RBS750) back to factory mode and still have the same issue. Does anyone else have this issue? I've updated to the latest firmware V4.6.9.11 and I wonder if I can get it replaced?

You need to downgrade the RBS FW to what is posted here for the CBK7 series system:

Do not use RBK7 series FW for RBS that come with the CBR750!

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.
