I am experiencing the exact same problem after updating firmware to 4.6.14.3
Wired devices to satellites aren’t discovered anywhere (app, web router or satellite) if the satellite is connected wireless.
However if I wire the satellite the wired devices appear.
Come on netgear, I have had enough of these things with other netgear products and hoped to get rid of it with the orbi 853
My first firmware upgrade and we are back 😬😬

Looking back I can find similar complaints going back about 2 years now. Seems like NETGEAR has no interest in resolving this. Sad. Really like their hardware but the app and also connecting with a browser is near worthless.
Have noticed with the 3 piece 853 that doing a reboot using the app doesn’t work most times. Have to go to each device and pull the power cord for 15 seconds to get them to restart properly. Never had that issue with my old RBK50 system.
