iOS not showing satellite
Hi,
Hey team Netgear, and team community you all rock !. for years I wanted wire backhaul on the orbi and "whoe Hoe" its working. So big Thanks !!!.
With very low importance I wanted to share that after setting up a wired satellite station. The station shows up in the webportal and the satellite station is operating as expected, however the iOS app keeps showing there are 0 satellite stations connected.
I rebooted everything but this keep persisting.
Cheers,

So the printouts and logs show that the router sees the satellite but there is no where that confirms that it's wired. Let's try the following change please, try the following telnet commands:
- config set satellite1="A0:04:60:17:11:CC 10.0.10.161 RBS50 4PN1685T03620 -100 V2.3.0.32 1 A0:04:60:17:13:2A wired 1 -100"
- config commit
After this check the attached devices in the web GUI and the Orbi app.

- ekhalilMasterThis might be one of the issues fixed in the latest Orbi sw 2.3.0.32. Have you updated to that sw yet? :)

Same here! IOS Orbi app showing no satellites, but login to router via browser shows both satellites connected. Satellites LED also off, indicating a good connection.

Make sure the app is up to date. There has been a recent update to the app.
