I cannot seem to be able to connect any device to the router, everything connects to the satalite. Anyone know how to solve this?

    Hello FezAndBow, 

     

    Ultimately the device will decide which access point to connect to based off of signal strength. You may try moving the satellites further from the router.

      I am seeing the same issue. I think what he's asking is either the device closest to the router or satellite should populate the device list. That being said is there a way to move a device within the firmware to accomplish this? Also does the router itself act as a wifi connection or only the satellites?
