Here is 2 screenshots where I am close to the router...

I can see that you have Daisy Chain enabled. Please disable it before doing the procedure above. You don't need Daisy Chain as you only have one satellite.

If you see in the snapshot that you posted below:

The red boxes are around your backhaul networks: One from your Router and the other one is from your Satellite. Not sure which is which (Please deactivate Daisy Chain so you only keep the Router's network).

But you can see that where you are standing with your phone one of the networks has very low level (-87 dBm) so I don't think that you have a good coverage there on that channel.

If the second screen shot was when you were standing close to the router then the MAC ending with 8f:ca is the Satellite and 6f:27 is the Router.

Please deactivate Daisy Chain, you don't need it, the network from the Satellite just imposes interference on the network from the Router since both transmit on the same channel.

So for you to have good speeds from devices connected to the satellite, you should get good level of signal for the Router network (MAC ending with 6f:27) when you stand with your wifi analyser close to the Satellite.

Hi . I have now tried to set the channel to 116 and 140 . There was not much improvement in the signal and the speed test came out with the same result so I changed the channel back to 108... I think that the satellite has a defect . I must try and find the receipt and get a new one

Have you also deactivated Daisy Chain?

Geniet · ‎2019-01-20

Yes , I did that first

Then I think that we have now done the troubleshooting that we can do. This can be a faulty unit, either the router or the satellite.

Yes , I think you are right. Thanks all of you for all your support , it has been very helpful even though it did not work. I have learned a lot about my WiFi that I never knew before. I will remember to post it here when I get a new one that is working ...
