Help Orbi Satellite Connection Type is 2.4ghz in my RBR20 and RBS20
for some reason my orbi keeps Connecting to 2.4ghz , so how do force it to stay on 5ghz ?
my devices connect 5ghz but my satellite stays on 2.4ghz and it halves my connection speed.
and thanks in advance.

It sounds like your satellite may be too far from the router. How far are they appart? Depending on building materials of your house, try having them about 30 feet (10 meters) apart.

my router is literally in the next room.
And what materials are the walls?
5ghz can't penetrate as much material or certain materials.
