*My house is 3200sf/two storeys. Is this a single or multi level home?
*Two satellites are about 30' from the router, the third is another 30' from the closest other satellite. I have daisy chain enabled.
*I see six neighbors' networks.

*I changed the 2.4ghz channel from Auto to 6. I changed the 5ghz to 40. Are these channels not being used by any neighbors?
*I turned off 20/40 coexistence.
*I rebooted since making these changes. I'll see if the changes make any difference.
Thanks!
