Still unsolved? Force a device to connect to a satellite
I know this has been discussed for years, but I don't see any recent discussions. Is there, now at the end of the year 2022, a way to force a device to connect to the nearest satellite instead of the...
Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, they're in the same garage, just 1.5 car widths apart.
Oddly, they've switched access points. Now the first one is talking to the satellite and the other one is talking to the router. So I'm going to chalk this up to the garage openers choosing their WAPs and not blame the Orbis.
I just happened to look at their status today for no particular reason. As you say, if they work, leave them alone. Good advice.
I also have Chamberlain door openers. My garage is on its own circuit so I can toggle the circuit breaker for the garage and these all reconnect to the nearest satellite after a power failure or Orbi reboot. Shame netgear isn’t listening to these forums. Does anyone know if Asus AiMesh has this capability?
