Ended up unplugging one of the satellites, I was having interference/confusion which led to poor performance (I assume a loop was created). I suspected they were too close to each other and in the end I found that I only needed one instead of two. This was after turning down the radio power. I have a big house but apparently the range is really good and I didn't need the second satellite. Does anyone have similar experience around this or suggestions? I'm not going to plug the second one back in since it works without it, but I'm curious.
Wireless backhaul, and no decent way to run wires. I’ve tried different locations for the satellites too. I’m not sure if it was 30 feet though like I said the house is huge. At this point the coverage seems ok so I’ll stay with just one satellite which is sort of in the middle of the house on floor 2 while the router is below ground somewhat below that.
