Orbi Satellites backhaul status in Config Sync
All three of my satellites show in config sync backhaul status. I have attempted a rest and reboots yet I can not get them out of that status. Anyone had that issue and resolution?

I would set up each satellite, one at a time, until the top led turns BLUE once the wired back haul is working. Definatly give 5 minutes for the system to configure each satellite when you connect the LAN cable between the router and satellite.
I would also set up a IP addresss reservation as well for each satellite.
I would also set up the system with ALL other devices disconnected from the router, while you set up the satellites for wired back haul. Once you get that all set up and running. Then connect the rest of the network devices.
