Attached device question?
I have my Amazon Echo about 40' from the router and 10' from the satellite. When I look at 'attached devices' the MAC of the echo shows as a wired connection to the router, which is 100% impossible.
Any ideas or advice?

Re: Attached device question?
I'm also finding devices that are further away from the router connecting to the router and not the satellite. Satellite is about 50' from the router and a device that is about 20' further away is connecting to the router as well.

Re: Attached device question?
Was your comment about the firmware defect related to the labeling (for example, I have a iPhone that shows as a wired connection) or devices choosing the further away Orbi node?

Re: Attached device question?
hi , devices shown as ethernet instead of wireless
the reason your device may actually be connecting to the other orbi node is they are to close together , try separating them further
