Orbi sattelite wifi disabled?

Hi.
I run Orbi netowks at home. I have one router and three satellites. One of them is only necessary to feed my main cpu with a wired link. Seems the wifi-signal coming from this satellite disrupts the mesh. Is there any way to disable one satellite from delivering wifi, and only work on the two cabled patches?

Short answer, no.  No capability to turn off radios.

 

The recommended distance between sat's/routers is at least 30'.  What are yours?

 

Have you tried reducing power?

You can use telnet to disable radio in a specific satellite. This is an option if you want to go through this!

But I also agree with @Chuck_M that you should be able to control the interference by reducing transmission power.
