Orbi High-Performance AC3000 Tri-band WiFi System
Place and Sync an Add-On Satellite
If you already set up an Orbi router and satellite are adding an optional add-on satellite (sold
separately) follow these steps.
To place and sync your satellite:
1. Place your Orbi satellite in a corner of your house that is far away from your existing
Orbi router and satellite, but still within range or your Orbi router and satellite.
If your house has multiple floors, place your Orbi satellite on a different floor than your
existing Orbi router and satellite.
2. Connect the satellite to a power source.
3. If the Power LED on the back of the satellite does not light, press the Power On/Off button.
4. Wait about two minutes for the satellite’s ring LED to light solid white.
5. Press the Sync button on the back of the satellite and within two minutes, press the Sync
button on the back of your Orbi router.
The satellite’s ring LED pulses white, then lights one of the following colors for about
three minutes and then turns off:
• Blue. The Orbi router and satellite successfully synced, and the connection between
the router and satellite is good.
• Amber. The Orbi router and satellite successfully synced, and the connection
between the router and satellite is fair. Consider moving the Orbi satellite closer to the
Orbi router.
• Magenta. The Orbi router and satellite failed to sync. Move the satellite closer to the
router and try again.
