Device connecting to furthest satellite
Hello. I have installed a wifi connected landscape lighting controller. I mounted the wifi antenna inside a storage room that is less than 10 feet from an Orbi satellite but has a standard wood frame...

Thanks for the replies.
I havent delved too deeply into the Orbi itself, and not since I installed it in November, but I don’t remember seeing any of the advanced options like on the Nighthawk I tried. I’m guessing they’re in there somewhere?
I thought I fixed the issue with the lighting controller manufacturer but the problem still persists and I don’t know if it’s their problem or with Orbi. The controller is logged in to the network and it usually shows upon the Orbi devices list, although with a weaker signal than the few times it has connected to the closest satellite. The problem is it doesn’t show as on the “available” list with the manufacturer’s app.
