Dan, my home router (Orbi11) is on the main floor of our home directly above the layout room. I also have a Orbi PET satellite booster in our lower level about 25 feet from the MTH Wi-Fi system. This Orbi system has been in place long before the connectivity issues began. I operate in the MAC world. Unfortunately, MTH never provided download access from a Mac.
This morning it took 6 refresher cycles to connect using my phone. At least I can eventually get it to work. I have to learn to become more patient.
Thanks for your continued help.
Cheers, Dave

So as an experiment, can you move the Orbi Satellite into the train room next to the WIU and connect those two devices with an Ethernet wire. Make sure you put the WIU into MTH mode.

Given that that WIU is receiving a nice strong signals between both the Orbi Router & Satellite, it may be a problem with how the WIU has to choose which one to connect to on the mesh network.
