Devices connect to my Orbis

General question about how devices connect to the orbi and satellites. I have set up of three. Do my devices connected to the Orbi swap based on the strongest signal, or once connected to the router or satellite, do they stay connected to that one?

I'm assuming it's the latter, but I have multiple devices connected to the satellite furthest from them, which makes no sense.

  • What three is set up? 

     

    Based on signal strength and quality. Depends on how the devices are designed and developed to connect. It's up to the devices to pick and choose where they connect too. 

     

    What model # Orbi system do you have?
