Daisy chain order
How does Orbi decide to daisy chain vs star network? I have my satellites set up in a way I wanted them to daisy chain. When I first set them up, they worked that way and now for some reason both sat...
Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Try putting the remote RBS out at a farther distance to see if it will connect to the 2nd RBS.
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
Daisy Chain is enabled on the RBR?
Try a reboot of the RBR only while leaving the RBS on.
- 3000 square feet. I am within 30 from one to the next. Where do I find spot to enable daisy chain?

- That worked! Moving it a bit further. So next question is now none of the devices I wanted to have connect to the furthest daisy chained satellite are connecting to it. They are going to the one before it in the daisy chain. Any tips there? Thank you!!!
- Ok. I found setting and it is enabled. I also tried to reboot. Still won’t daisy chain
