Both of the screen shots were of a web browser:
- Accessing the web page of the satellite, and
- Accessing the Attached Devices page on the router.
The Orbi 'app' is not involved, although it would be interesting to know how the device running the web browser was connected to the Orbi system. If, for example, it is connected to the router, then opening the satellite home page would involve passing through the backhaul connection, which implies that it is indeed "connected" (as Attached Devices shows).
This is a mystery (to me) because my Orbi 50 system, with the same v2.7.6.6 firmware, shows the connection as one would expect.

Sorry, I missed that.

My own RBS50 is using a wired backhaul. It shows the same satellite screen as edavis949.
