Sync a satellite from an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini system
The Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini system includes an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router and a Orbi Pro
WiFi 6 Mini satellite. The Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite that is packaged with an Orbi Pro
WiFi 6 Mini router is preset to automatically find and sync to the router's WiFi signal.
To sync your Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite:
1. Place your satellite.
For more information, see Place your Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite on page 17.
2. Connect the satellite to a power source.
The satellite bar LED pulses white. The satellite automatically finds the router’s WiFi
signal and attempts to sync to the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router.
Note: The first time that you sync the satellite and the router, the sync process can
take up to five minutes because the router might automatically update the satellite’s
firmware.
The satellite bar LED lights one of the following colors for about three minutes and
then turns off:
•
Blue: The router and satellite successfully synced, and the connection between
the router and satellite is good.
•
Amber: The router and satellite successfully synced, and the connection between
the router and satellite is fair. Consider moving the satellite closer to the router.
•
Magenta: The router and satellite failed to sync.
3.
If the satellite bar LED is magenta, move the satellite closer to the router and then
sync the satellite to the router:
a.
Press the Sync button on the back of the router.
b.
Within two minutes, press the Sync button on the back of the satellite.
The satellite attempts to sync to the router. The satellite bar LED lights blue,
amber, or magenta as described in Step 2 of this procedure and then turns off.
Sync an add-on Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite
If you already set up an Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini router and satellite and you are adding an
optional add-on Orbi Pro WiFi 6 Mini satellite (sold separately), follow the steps in this
section.
