Now the satellite Orbi will not stay connected to the router for more than 1 minute, even when in the same room as the base router. The LED turns to magneta and then will turn to blue for less than a minute. Not sure how to fix this issue and really don't want to have to pay for tech support on a $400 dollar purchase that I made only 6 months ago.

I am now having the same issue - won't stay connected for over a minute (stays Blue) then goes to Magenta.. I can see the 2nd satellite via my Orbi app but not when logged into my router.. All have same firmware
