Orbi and NEST

Question

Anyone else have NEST devices and notice that they do not connect to the satellite? &nbsp;I have a house full of NEST devices and there are several that are way closer to the satellite but are connecting to the router instead. &nbsp;Other devices seem to connect to the closest unit, like my web cam and tablets.

I have the Thermostat also, the latest version and several Nest protects. &nbsp;Not one is connecting to the satelite and most of them are way closer to it.

As I have battery Protects, they only connect intermittently so I can’t confirm explicitly that they are connecting to the satellite. &nbsp;However given their placement, I am certain 2 of them definitely are. &nbsp;Bottom line, no issues with Nest thermostat and Protects and Orbi for me.
