Moving Devices to a Different Satelite
The Orbi RBR750 doesn't do a good job of assigning devices to closest satelite, will this ability be added into the app for manual control?

Considering that (some) customers have been asking about this capability for over five years, my guess is the only things that would convince Netgear to even explore such a feature would be competitors promoting that they have it and reviewers praising how wonderful those products are because of it.
In other words... "nope".
Its not a manual control option.
do you have the satellites/router at least 30 ft apart?
How large is your home and how many satellites do you have?
What do you have your broadcast power set at? Sometimes it helps to decrease it a bit if the router/satellite are to close together
Yes to 30ft apart, 3200 sq ft, 1 router, & 2 satellites.
2.4G & 5G is being used.
I've got a roughly 3200 sq ft home with just the router and satellite. You might try turning down the broadcast power.
Or test it and see how the speeds do. The devices might be close enough to the router that they're getting better speeds directly connected.
