Hi adikm,
The best settings is Orbi default settings. You can enable those 3 Advanced settings for enhanced or new features if they don't wreak havoc in your WiFi network. Also, if your Satellites are within the WiFi range of your Orbi Router, please disable Daisy-Chain feature since it won't help and will only hurt.
BTW, what sort of reliable problem do you currently have with your Orbi setup?
