It is not a true mesh. New Orbi satellite always go back to the Orbi router

its not mesh topology at all , its star topology and so all sats must connect to the orbi router at this stage , no word if this will change in the future
the orbi system will also not connect to each other via ethernet only via its 5 gig backhaul
