Satellite showing up as a device and not a satellite.

Satellite showing up as a device and not a satellite.

I want to continue on this topic as i am having the same issue with my Orbi. Are there any solutions to this problem?

Because of this I got to do a manual firmware update. No changes even after the update to the latest firmware and a power cycle. 

 

Anyone?

Hello Raymondloh

 

Have you tried a factory reset?

Hi Darren,

 

I did. However not by choice. My Orbi hardreset by itself after i done a reboot command from Genie. 

 

It loss all setting and recognise the Satellite after setting it up again. 

 

Thank you for the suggestion.
