This is the present layout of my Orbi system. I had a lot of connectivity issues with the release but it seems to be stable and performing well.
I moved “satellite G” to the first floor immediately below the router in the second floor. Also recently added a second wall satellite on the second floor.

Bottom line- I have good connectivity and performance now.
