How to specify which access point a device can connect to?

Hi, Is it possible to dictate with satellite on my system a given device can connect to? I see that devices can be blocked or allowed, but I don't see a place to dictate which satellite the device can connect to.

 

I'm looking to do this because customer support for a device of mine (sense.com) is saying that this is the only way to get it to work.

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

    No. You can turn down power on the RBR to help steer devices to either or from the RBR to a RBS. 

    Depends on placement and distances between the RBR and RBS and how many RBS you have deployed. 

    If your having problems, best to turn OFF the RBS and work with just the RBR to get devices connected first.
