All devices are using firmware 2.1.4.16
Modem is a Cisco DPC3008
Satellites are on separate floors, probably about 30 feet.
Square feet: 5000+ (A large arts building)
Tomorrow I will try your suggestions about rebooting and using a different browser.
Thank you.

Whats this art building material made up of if you know?

The building is pretty old. Who knows what is in the walls.
I will say this: initially the Satellites were listed properly under "connected Satellites" and the "Backhaul status" was listed as "good". That was a few weeks ago.
