RBR 860 not showing satellites as wired
I have two rbs850 satellites wired to an rbr860 router. All works ok but the Orbi app is telling me they are connected by 5 ghz rather than wire. Tried plugging and unplugging but no change. Any guida...

Check the Orbi web interface (http://orbilogin.net ) If Attached Devices (at the top of the page) shows satellites 'wired', then the 'app' is (substitute appropriate epithet).

Thank you for the tip.
Unfortunately, the web interface also does not show the satellites as wired. I also realized that one of the wired satellites is out of sync. After rebooting still same result. There is no option to remove the satellite in the attached devices portion of the web interfaces so I cannot figure out how to do a full factory rest (ie remove satellite then factory reset).
The other wired satellite appears as 5ghz but has a good back haul with connected devices. Any guidance?
