RBS50 Satellite goes off line

[ewiesner]

One of the satellites is located in my bedroom and most every night it wakes me as it progresses through the amber, blue and white light as if it has lost it's connection or has been recycled.  I'm not losing power as I have a fan running on the same outlet.  The base and satellites are both running the latest firmware, 2.1.2.18.  I was out of town when this firmware was installed and I've also noticed my wifi devices are slow to connect.  I don't know it these are related, but if I can't resolve, I may drop back to the previous version and see it that makes a difference.  Thoughts or suggestions?

2.1.2.18 has reported problems.  You may want to step back to 2.0.1.14

I called Netgear customer support and they walked me through the process.  Took about 20 minutes.  You can also do it yourself.  Not hard.

I see version 2.0.1.4, I do not see version 2.0.1.14.... is this a mistake?

Typo.  He meant 2.0.1.4.

OK, so I want to rollback my firmware, but I am unable to login to my satellite devices.  I can successfully login to orbilogon.com, but cannot get my logon to be accepted by the satellite.  Suggestions?

Does admin and password work? 

The log in of the Satellite should be the same as the Orbi Router...

[ewiesner]

No, it does not.  I know my password.  Can I factory reset the satellite only without reseting the router? If I reset the entire system, what does the logon and password become. Admin for the logon and password for the password?  TIA

If you reset the Satellite, you'll have to re-add it to the system. Try this. It should gather same log in info as router after it's re-connected. 

Look for the Ip address of the Satellite after it's re-added on the routers connected devices page. Use this in a web browser. Should be same log in as router.

Does the user manual give default log in info for Satellite?
