Agree with respect to the satellite attached list - was OK until about 3 hours post upgrade, now list of attached devices is empty. Also, the router attached list isn't right, things connected to the satellite show attached to the router. And, other devices that are attached to one or the other aren't listed at all.
Still major issues with connection accounting, 2.0.0.76 wasn't right, but this is still worse.
Updated firmware to latest. All devinces connected to satellite show as WIRED to the main router, so I can’t tell if theyre connecting at 2.4 or 5. With former firmware, this was working fine.
Also Genie network map often shows incomplete list of devices. Normally have 45-50 devices connected but Genie shows just 3-4 at times.
