Long-distance diagnosis is risky, but most of this sounds backwards.
Normally, it's the stiffest end of the car that breaks away first.
Understeer, by definition, means that the front tends to break away first.
If you want less of this condition, you'd normally think about softer front
settings or stiffer rear settings. Your mileage may vary.
