2) My network set-up shows the router connected to Satellite 2 and then Satellite 1 (in that order)...should the order be reversed to 1 and then 2, or is this normal/okay? Depends on how you have the RBS placed out from the router and how they were turned on and connected to the router. Got a screen capture of this?
3) My network set-up also shows a solid line from the Modem to the Router and a dotted line from the Router to each of the satellite units. I suspect the solid line is to indicate a hard wire connectin via CAT-5 and the dotted line is to indicate a wireless connection...correct? YES.

One of the most frustrating features of the Netgear community forums is that images placed "in-line" using the Photos icon in the task bar above do not appear to others until approved by a forum moderator, which can take hours (or days).
Images that are "attached" using the Browse button in the lower left are available immediately.
So, you went to a lot of effort to post two images, but no one can see them.
