New Orbi Setup now no disconnects on iPad and other devices

The backhaul connection from the router to the satellite is dropping which means every device connected to the satellite is technically dropping but is usually only noticed on iPads or sensitive devices like cameras and Wi-Fi calling. The problem is with the router and not the satellite and definitely not the end points.

Apologies BobertSagnet, my reply was related to Slyke's last post. It does not thread so well on here. I am not sure how it would relate to a problem you may have.
What we are focusing upon with those questions from Slyke is the likelyhood that the iOS devices are not roaming to the router when the satellite drops the client network when its backhaul goes down.
Given the proximity of the router and the satellite there is likely coverage overlap for the client networks and it is possible that the non-iOS devices are seamlessly roaming to the router when the satellite fails.
That is where my questions were focused.
