Orbi RBR50 / RBS50 network, not showing network map of connected devices

My guess is that information about the satellites is not appearing because they are in the "config sync" state. i.e. the router to satellite connection is not fully established.

Guess it would be worth asking.... Is the system actually "working correctly" in the sense that device have internet and are "happy" and the only problem is how they are described?

thanks for the reply - ill try that. (I also realised post is in the wrong forum section 🙄).
in answer to your question, 'working correctly' in my original context, basically meant that i can get an internet connection in every room, - I just dont know if it is optimised.

The "Unknown connection" shown is also a factor, probably related. All satellites are wired?
