Is there a way to force a device to a certain satellite?

So, I own the RBK3 Mesh system with two satellite.  I had to move one of the satellites from the basement to my garage(ORBI 2) for better coverage.  I noticed that every device is either connected to the router or the ORBI .  I am assuming that when I took ORBI 2 from the basement and moved it to the garage everyting found another connection.  So, my question is is there a way to "force" a device to a connect to the router or the satellites?  Thanks you!

    Hi sandman512, you can temporarily turn off the other satellite for them to connect to either the router or the satellite where you want them to be connected to.
