I think it will help to remove all satellite pairings and start again. Please pair the wired satellites only when the LAN cables are conneted. Please follow the following procedure:

  1. Switch off the Satellites
  2. Go to Attached Devices in the web GUI and click on the "Disconnect" button beside all the Satellites one by one.
  3. Turn on the Satellite -one by one- and use a paper clip to factory reset the Satellite.
  4. When the Satellite is up after factory reset, press the Sync button on the Satellite (while the Ethernet cables to the Router are connected for the wired satellites) and then on the Router.
  5. When the Satellites are now added they should -hopefully- behave correctly.
