Re: satellite hookup
Did you push both sync buttons?

It may be necessary to "Factory Reset" the satellite:

Re: satellite hookup
On the Orbi web interface, there is a menu selection for "Add a Satellite" (http://orbilogin.net) at the bottom.
A used satellite may have been synced to a router before you got it. As far as I am aware, there is "downside" to doing a Factory Reset on a satellite before attaching it to a router.
