New Orbi RBR50/RBS50 Firmware Version 2.3.1.44

I've gone ahead and done a full reboot of the Orbi network on the 10th (not a reset, as I had done the factory reset when the firmware was first applied), along with disabling auto update via telnet on both the router and the satellite.  Yes, the RBS50 also needs to have its auto update function disabled.  Daisychain was also disabled.  If you log into the satellite's debug page, there is a ghosted setting that indicates whether daisychain is disabled or not.  I made sure all wired and wireless devices were off the network during the reboot process.  Because of OCD, I used address reservation to pin the RBS50 to x.2 address, although it should be said bringing up the network the way I described with no devices active will allow the satellite to grab the x.2 address on its own.

Verified the additional backhaul channel is not active using WiFi Analyzer.  Here it looks like the system is using channel 157 and 161 for backhaul based on the MAC address I see, in addition to the main 44, which I changed from 48.  I don't care what the 2.4GHz is doing and is set to Auto.  The 5GHz channel is a bit of a challenge because my neighbor's wifi keeps stepping on mine so I move mine to be safe.

I'm in agreement with SW_   WiFi is able to run at full bandwidth. 

Oh, and I did all of the testing on .44 as opposed to downgrading.
