Sync your Orbi Satellite With the NETGEAR Insight App

You can use the NETGEAR Insight app to sync your Orbi satellite with your Orbi Pro router. For more information about the app, visit https://www.netgear.com/insight/.

1. Download the NETGEAR Insight app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
   
   
   
2. Launch the NETGEAR Insight app on your mobile device and follow the prompts.

Note: If you don't own a mobile device, follow the instructions in Manually Sync Your Satellite Before You Install It.

Manually Sync Your Satellite Before You Install It

Place your Orbi Pro router and Orbi satellite near each other during the syncing process. After your router and satellite are synced, mount the satellite.

1. Place your Orbi satellite in an area near your Orbi Pro router.
2. Connect your satellite to a power source.
   Either connect the power adapter to the satellite and to a power source or connect PoE+ LAN port 1 on the satellite to an Ethernet cable and to a Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) switch that can provide 802.3at (PoE+) power.
   The Power LED on the top panel of the Orbi satellite lights solid green.
   Note: If the Power LED does not light, check the power source or the PoE+ switch. If the Power LED lights red, the power is not at the required 802.3at (PoE+) level. Make sure that you use an 802.3at (PoE+) switch and not an 802.af (PoE) switch. For more information about the Power LED, see the user manual, which you can download by visiting https://www.netgear.com/support/download/.
3. Wait for the LED bar (next to the Power LED) to light solid white.
   The following is the LED bar behavior during booting:
   • Pulsing white. The satellite is booting.
   • Solid white. The satellite finished booting and is ready to sync with your router.
4. Press the Sync button on the back of your satellite, and within two minutes, press the Sync button on the back of your Orbi Pro router.
5. Wait for the satellite to sync with the router.
   The LED bar on the satellite lights pulsing white while it attempts to sync with your Orbi Pro router. It might take about six minutes for your satellite to sync.
   After the LED bar lights pulsing white, it lights one of the following colors for about three minutes and then turns off:
   Blue
   The Orbi Pro router and satellite successfully synced, and the connection between the router and satellite is good.
   Amber
   The Orbi Pro 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 Orbi Pro router and satellite did not sync. Move the satellite closer to the router and try again.
6. Mount your satellite and connect it to a power source.
   You can mount your satellite on a ceiling or on a wall. For more information, see Mount the Satellite on a Drop Ceiling or Mount the Satellite on a Wall in this quick start guide.
   Either connect the power adapter to the satellite and to a power source or connect PoE+ LAN port 1 on the satellite to an Ethernet cable and to a PoE+ switch that can provide 802.3at (PoE+) power.
7. Make sure that the LED bar lights blue to indicate a good connection to the Orbi router.
   Note: After your satellite syncs with your router, the satellite's Sync button is disabled for security reasons. If you press the Sync button and the satellite's LED bar pulses magenta, this LED behavior indicates that the Sync button is disabled. To enable the Sync button, log in to the router and go to the Attached Devices page. For more information, see the user manual.
