Be sure the wifi radios ARE fully turned OFF at the modem.
Be sure the placement between the modem and RBR using is 3feet or more in between them.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Is Armor or Circle enabled?

WiFi radios are currently on since I was experiencing issueds with connection: my Apple TV was buffering during streaming, which it hadn't doing before I turned rthe radios on.

Interesting. My Orbi Router is connected by ethernet to the ATT Gateway. They are sitting right next to each other. Could that be an issue?

I have 2.4 set to Auto and 5 set to 48. They have been like that forever.
There are probably 8-10 WiFi signals I am seeing nearby.
No Armor or Circle enabled.
