I have an Orbi router and one satellite. But, only "Orbi 26" appears on my computer's list of available WiFi networks. Should I also see a satellite listed? I've rebooted and resynced, and no satellite shows up on my list of available WiFi networks. Or, does my computer/phone pick either the router or satellite, and it just shows "Orbi 26" as my network. Thanks!
One SSID name will be seen regardless if your connected to the RBR or RBS. The RBS does not broadcast it's own WIFI SSID name, less this would not be a Wifi MESH system. The RBS is like a extender or repeater for the RBR. takes the RBRs signal and re-broadcasts the same SSID name.
Just make sure the top ring LED is OFF and the status of the status shows up in the RBRs connected clients page on the RBR web page.
Log in to the RBR at 192.168.1.1 or orbilogin.com with a web browser. Or use the Orbi app to check the status as well on a phone or pad.
Also it's recommended to not use the default Orbi## SSID name. You can change this to be anything. Make it somethign fun for intuitive. Be sure to change the wifi password aswell.
