Want to give an update. Rather than go through a mostly unnecessary RMA for add-on satellites, I went ahead and purchased add-on satellites from Amazon for the 970. New ones came with newest power supply design.
At first I thought it would solve the wireless backhaul problem, but then issue resurfaced to where entire network became throttled. Then, with my known fix, removed the satellite connected via wireless backhaul and speeds are normal.
Therefore, the Apple device woes that is fine it needs more time, BUT the wireless backhaul is an issue present in 9.22.5.3 that should be fixed sooner rather than later.
