lost wi fi and Orbi50 wont reset
we have an Orbi 40 with one satellite for almost a year. It has worked great great
This morning when we woke up we had no Home internet and while our computer and devices could find other neighbor wifi ours is missing. I tried resetting our Orbi by pressing the reset button while it did reset to amber on the Satellite it does not seem to reset on the router. I have tried pressing for over 60 seconds but no change to the green power indicator, I've powered it off and on multiple times but it just comes back to the same white light blinking halo.
Thanks for any help you can give!

Re: lost wi fi and Orbi50 wont reset
Please look at the top of the Orbi routers LED for a Yellowish/Orange LED. If your holding the back reset button for only 10-15 seconds is needed max, you should see the top LED change to Yellowish/Orange. Then let go. Then the LED should blink WHITE ON and Off quickly for a few seconds, then it should slowly blink White like it's breathing. This inidcates that the router is ready for set up. Connect a wired PC to the back of the router and set up with a browser connected at 192.168.1.1.
