Problem with Satleite Ethernet on 2.2.1.210

While on all previous builds, I have had my satelite connected via ehternet backhaul, I also had an Apple TV and Sonty Android TV conencted via ethernet to the satelite, once I upgraded to 2.2.1.210 the satleite became unrepsonsive with any ethernet device connected, I facotry reset and still see the same behavior, everyting works fine when I remove all other ethernet connectiosn and leave only the backhaul connection.

The satellites need to be set up via wireless first. Then connect 1 satellite at a time to the ethernet LAN cable. Wait 5 minutes and the top led on the satellite should turn on BLUE. Set up an IP address reservation for the 1st satellite. Continue to do the same thing for the 2nd satellite. Then connect your devices the satellite. Does this work for you?
