Satellite rows come from the older method: a satellite a floor above the router with the receiving system '50-feet farther away' gave 294.5 Mbps, a satellite 40 ft from the router with the test station 'another 50-feet away' on the same floor gave 65.5 Mbps, and a second satellite downstairs with a system 40 ft away gave 150.5 Mbps.
