If the satellite’s bar LED lights magenta, the satellite did not resync with the router.
If they successfully synced when they were placed in the same room, do one of the
following:
•
Move the satellite closer to the router and try again. The router must be within
the satellite’s WiFi coverage area for a good or fair connection to the satellite.
•
Place another satellite between the router and the satellite that you are trying to
sync. Then try to sync between the two satellites. With daisy chain networking,
your satellites can connect to each other or to the router, depending on which
connection is best.
You cannot log in to the router
Make sure that your computer or mobile device is connected to the Orbi WiFi network.
If you do not want to use a WiFi connection, you can connect your computer to the Orbi
router with an Ethernet cable.

password on page 124.
