The satellite bar LED pulses white. The satellite automatically syncs to the Orbi router.
Note: The first time that you sync the satellite and the router, the sync process can
take between five and ten minutes because the router might automatically update
the satellite's firmware.
After the sync process is complete, the satellite bar LED lights blue for about three
minutes and then turns off. Blue indicates that the router and satellite successfully
synced, and the wired connection between the router and satellite is good.

Your Orbi satellite automatically connects over WiFi to your Orbi router or another Orbi
satellite to create a WiFi backhaul connection, or you can use an Ethernet cable to
connect your satellite to your router or another satellite to create a wired backhaul
connection.
