Certainly, tried two:

1. old 1Gb no-name (Level-one) hub (that supports jumbo frames though)

2. TP-Link AC1750

We dont have any known issue. I am not sure your (cellar:hub). Did you check with any other switch?

  I checked with two already that are proven to work with stable 1Gb links.
  Even now these are shown to be wired - what's peculiar - via satellite, even both router and satellite are connected via the same hub.

    Hello Raghu,
    
    I poked into the logs and could not see any activation of the ethernet ports so I reconnected all the cables over the weekend and indeed the satellite started to show on the wired section as well!
    
    Hard to think that I made a mistake somewhere but looks like it was the case, so big thanks for the follow up, your time helping was very much appreciated.
    
    Cheers,
