If Daisy-Chain is enabled on the Router and not enabled on the Satellite, it might explain this behavior. Points your browser to Satellite-IP-Address/debug.htm and check its daisy chain status. There should be a grey check box next to it.
If the box is not ticked, try these:

3. config commit
4. reboot
That will instruct the Satellite to refresh its Daisy-Chain setting along with all other settings from the main Orbi Router.
