Connected devices on Satellite shows fewer than actually connected
Per the title, the web config of connected devices on the satellite shows less than those actually connected to it.
For example, Im currently seeing 5 devices in 2.4G and 5G bands showing on the web interface.
Having enabled telnet and issued wlanconfig ath0 list sta + wlanconfig ath1 list sta
I see 10 devices.
Im not sure if this is a result of upgrading to V2.1.3.4 firmware or not - can someone on the older firmware check? I dont want to downgrade to check myself ;)
The Router node correctly shows the total of both main and satellite devices.

Was a factory reset performed after upgrading to v2.1.3.4? If not, then there maybe some residual data left from prior FW and configuration. IT's highly recommended to factory reset both router and satllite(s) and setup from scratch.
yes, full reset done.

Try viewing the page with a different brower to see if there are any differences.
I would do this. turn off all connected devices that connects to the satellite. Should see nothing connected. then add one device. check status. graduate adding a device and check status...
Browser makes no difference.
Can you confirm you see the same number in the web interface and CLI on the satellite?
And how many devices connected to the satellite?

I'm seeing only two items in the UI and in telnet for my 1 satellite:
wlanconfig ath0 list sta + wlanconfig ath1 list sta
