Orbi Solid Magenta appearing on one satellite

One of the satellites is showing this randomly, was working fine for days.

 

Where are the logs located on why it is doing this? I logged into router, but couldn't find the details.

  • indicates that the sat is losing connectivity with the orbi router , suggest you move the sat closer to the router

      I have the same problem and it has nothing to do with the distance between the Orbi Router and Orbi Satellite.

      Because the Orbi Router and Orbi Satellite have a good connection for one day, some day and sometimes a whole week.

      After the connection drop, which cause the Orbi Satellite to turn on Magenta, the connection comes back again, but the Orbi Satellite stays burning solid Magenta.

       

      Who can I find out what is causing the connection drop and why is the Magenta light of the Orbi Satellite not going off after the connection is back again?

        You may want to try an upgrade to the latest firmware 1.4.0.34 see if this corrects the issue.
