Orbi Question

I have an orbi router and 2 satelite's. When I open the app and look at the network map and click on each orbi it tells me what devices on being used by which Orbi. One of my satelite's has no devices and all 19 of my devices are on router and 1 satelite. What does this mean?

Re: Orbi Question

Is Daisy Chain enabled or disabled on your system. 

How are the RBS places from the RBR? Out in a line or in a star formation? 

 

What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Re: Orbi Question

Hi,

 

When I reloaded my Orbi system the router came up first and nearly all my devices joined the router and then the satellites came up and a few devices connected to the satellites.  I had to individually reset the devices closest to the satellites so that they joined the satellites.  It looks like the Orbi router in my house has a strong signal, so that the devices do not need to transfer to the satellite?
