Interesting, thank you. By "WiFi-direct," do you mean that the remote and the Ultra communicate with each other over 2.4GHz independent of my regular WiFi networks?

I suspect that is the case since another Ultra that I bought at the same time is hardwired, and it does not show as a WiFi client in the topology graphic for my UDM SE console. The one connected to the old RCA does show, of course, since I haven't had time to run a cable to it yet. My policy is: If it doesn't move, hardwire it. 😊
My understanding is that WiFi-direct is just that -- a direct connection between the WiFi systems of both units, not going through the local LAN. That's what you're doing when you pair the remote to the Roku it is many meant to control - you're configuring the WiFi-direct connection between them.
