Both are in AP mode, DHCP is controlled by a server on my network, the router is a Netgear lb1120 (lte modem). I also have a Netgear GS108PEv3 on the network. There are no wired connections between the AP's, the satellite has a single wired connection to my desktop on one side of the house. The "router" AP has wired connections to the switch, steam link, a raspberry pi, storage server and printer.
