Satellite waiting for connection

[Grouper5]

I want to update the firmware of my system but on the Netgear login page it says that the satellite is waiting for a connection. The satellite is performing fine. What do I do to update the firmware automatically and why can't my computer see that the satellite is connected?

I am having the same issue.  I'm also have conectivity issues.  I have rebooted them probably 10 times.  They'll work for a little while, then I have no internet connection and I get a solid magenta ring. I work from home and they have been stable for over a year.  There is something going on for sure!  Firmware is V2.1.1.16

Ok, messed around with it and i discovered this.

My sattelite was showing disconnected so I deleted it from the list, Advanced\Administration\Attached Devices, and then resync'ed it. I'll post back if i still have issues, otherewise, figure everything is now fine!

I have this problem also.

I actually had the issue again today. Deleted the satellite and added it back and it fixed it again.

I don't see to have a delete option there for the satellite. 😞

Hello bek1

Try to hold the reset button for 10+ seconds on the satellite then resync the unit.

Put satellite near rbr router.

Reset satellite to factory defaults.

Wait to sync to rbr router.

Then you can move rbs satellite to other room.

Enable beamforming and mu-mimo.
