Updated manually to 2.1.4.16 over two weeks ago. Most painless update so far. System has been rock solid since the update as it has been since I bought it in Feb this year. I liked the Orbi so much I bought the Arlo cameras which have also exceeded my expectations.
Router and two sats are in AP mode, wireless backhaul, large house with 30+ devices of all types. Verizon Fios router.
Using wired backhaul and AP mode. Can someone explain if I leave the sattalite as showing attached to main unit is OK or does it need to show as a sattalite? Seems to be working ok tired of using paperclip to reset it can I leave it like this until the next Firmware hopefully can fix this issue?
If it's working fine, then leave it. No need to change anything. It should show as WIRED if your using ethernet back haul.

FURRYe38 thanks for letting me know it shows number of satellite attached as 0 but shows as attached device as wired, I will leave it like this tired of monkeying with it maybe next Firmware address this issue. using Orbi in AP mode currently with googlefiber 1GB up/down.
Should show 1 however something is hung up. IF it's working for you. Leave it for now.
