All devices connected to router v2.1.1.12

I didn't see a thread dedicated to this so I wanted to post this particular problem with the new firmware 2.1.1.12.

First, I manually installed the Satellites firmware FIRST, then the Router.  By doing this I am NOT having any problems with connectivity, over heating, or restarting. 

HOWEVER, the problem I am encountering is that all 30 devices attached say they are connected to the Router, and apparently nothing is attached to the 2 satellites. Before the update half of my devices were attached to one of the 2 satellites. This must be a bug, right?  My house is big enough that there is no way some of the attached devices could actually be connected to the router, but it says they are.

  • Me too. However all devices seem to have good access (80-90) WiFi  to the internet where ever we are in the house. So I think the sats must be we working?

      Agreed - I didn't post about this because I think it's just a display issue because all connections are good. Hopefully that is the case, but I'd like to prove that satelites are working as they are supposed to.

        Actually the more I look at this the more I think this firmware is borked, when I go directly and log into a satellite, https://192.168.1.3/connectDevices.htm is clearly shows nothing connecting to either satellite. However, I know that some things are wired in and they also show the same so not sure what is going on.
