Have you tried enabling beamforming on the ORBI router? To do so, go to ADVANCED > Advanced Setup > Wireless Settings. There is a box at the bottom of the screen called "Enable Implicit BEAMFORMING - Boosts Wi-Fi speed, reliabillity, & range for all mobile devices".
Try that and see if that helps with your connection issue.

My Haiku Big Ass fan hasn't had any issues with my Orbi. You mention things working if you switch back to your old router -- Did you repair your fan to the wireless after switching to the Orbi? Things may not work correctly if you depend just on having the same SSID between your old router and your new Orbi. Would be best to connect fresh and see if that fixes things.
