Orbi AC2200 - Strength varies from blue to amber constantly.

Looks like you have radio coverage issues.

- Please make a wifi scan and see which channels are being used by backhaul links and if your neighbors are using the same channels.

- Please try toggling the "Enable Daisy-Chain Topology" setting under >> ADVANCED >> Advanced Setup >> Wireless Settings.

What FW is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?

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 them to begin with depending upon building materials.

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

Try disabling the following and see:
MIMO, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).

Just install the Orbi AC220 RBK44 system in a large house.  Initially, all satellites came on with good strength and the blue light.  I tested my speed with 3rd party speed testing and it was fast.  Since, I have noticed that the satellites are changing from blue to amber and then back to blue.  The light never seems to go off as it should if all is stable.  I checked my speed again and it is way down.  Download speeds were up to 200+ and now 18Mbps.  Upload were 40+ and now 22Mbps.  Any suggestions?
