Modem Combo Units:
Couple of options,
1. Configure the modem for transparent bridge mode. Then use the Orbi router in router mode.
2. If you can't bridge the modem, disable ALL wifi radios on the ISP modem, configure the modems DMZ for the IP address the Orbi router gets from the modem. Then you can use the Orbi router in Router mode.
3. Or disable all wifi radios on the modem and connect the Orbi router to the modem, LAN to LAN and configure AP mode on the Orbi router.
What version of FW is loaded on the router and satellite?
What is the distance between the router and satellite? Feet?
What is the distance between the router, satellite and TV?
Any wireless nieghbors near by? if so, how many?
What channels are you using on the Orbi router?
Try disabling MIMO, Daisy Chain and Fast Roaming, reboot both satellite and router after saving changes.

This does not answer my question.
Orbi has at the moment to Satellite connected as i did not want any influence from it.
Its just the Orbi as AP connected via Wan-Lan to my Router and no there are not a lot other Wireless Networks active. The Orbi is just 2m away from the Swisscom TV Box.
How do yo explain that freezes go away by changing the TV Channel?
Why the freezes go away on disabling WMM?
Why it works without freezes with my Routers Wifi but not with Orbis?
Does Orbi supports Multicast properly in all Standards?
