RBS50Y
I have a RBS50Y outdoor satellite. I can't get it to connect to my RBR50. I may have accidentally go it into extender mode (flashing blue) and then found instructions to get it into satellite mode ...

There are two models of RBS50Y. Can you look on the product label and see which version this is?
The instructions on how to change back from Extender to Orbi mode are in the lower right part of page two of the installation instructions:

I was able to get it back to Orbi mode but still can't get it to sync.
I have the V2
I was thinking maybe it's the firmware that needs updated but since it is the outdoor model there isn't an ethernet port and I don't know how to update.
I only have access to a MacBook and can't even get the firmware to open (says it's corrupted file).
any help appreciated.
