can I add 4th Satellite, RBS50 with different SSDI?

Hello,

 

My family members temporary moving in and gave me one satellite to borrow. We thought to add it as 4th satelitte. I tried to sync and realized it may not able to because of different SSDI? Is there a way I can do to have it connected? Your input will be help. Thank you.

When you do the "Add Orbi Satellite" menu item using the sync buttons, the SSID on this satellite will be changed to match the existing ones.

 

If for some reason it doesn't sync immediately, unbend a paperclip and do a Factory Reset on the satellite.
