Re: Orbi router does not recognize satellites connected to the switch
what firmware is on the router and on the satellites?
Have you tried a different switch?

Re: Orbi router does not recognize satellites connected to the switch
They all are using the latest firmware (V2.5.1.16)
I bought a new switch and it should probably arrive today. But a behavior that I found strange is that if I connect the switch to a free port on some satellite, everything works normally. The problem is when I connect a satellite directly to the switch.

Re: Orbi router does not recognize satellites connected to the switch
Yes, I was just reading about green switches. I've never heard of it! And worse: the new switch I bought has this green configuration.
But at the same time, as I said, It's a very strange behavior because I only have problems when I connect satellites. All other devices work fine.
