1. what modem/gateway is the router connected to?
2. the router/satellites can have different firmware versions. what is on each one? (and don't say the latest)

It looks like my firmware is up-to-date and consistent across the router and satellites. This really seems to be my wireless continuously switching on my devices for some reason.
The signal is very strong, and my download upload speeds are consistent with what they've always been. But my devices seem to be going back and forth on my wireless network.
I do not broadcast my SSID. I was running a guest network for a while, but I have disabled that.
