Mesh link status
Hello,
I have the OrbI PRO Wi-Fi 6 mini model SXR 30 and two satellites SXS 30.
I have them connected via ethernet backhaul. On the Insight app it shows the Mesh link status as excellent. However, I thought I remembered previously to firmware updates that the mesh link status read ethernet when connected via ethernet backhaul.
Thanks for any help.

I have the same setup (SXK30) with a wired backhaul. Mine shows the same "excellent" in green in the app. It is wired and runs as wired so I think its just how the app displays it.
- Thank you for taking the time to reply.
I believe mine is running as intended as well and it is nice to hear that yours is showing the same and running as expected.
I have found that removing the Ethernet cable changes the link status to GOOD. With a return to excellent with reconnecting the Ethernet cable.
Just thought it used to show Ethernet prior to all of the firmware and app updates.
Thanks again.I'm honestly not sure what it said before. I'm not a huge fan of the insight app as it takes so long to load so I rarely use it.
I mainly just log in through the gui
