Thanks for the suggestion. Will try out what's possible.
The satellite connecting to the router on 2.4G does not seem to be affecting performance though - atleast for the usage at home.

When I look at my wireless with Wi-Fi Analyzer, I always see an unlabeled SSID on both 2.4GHz. and 5GHz. And yes, I get full speed despite that. Don’t really know how the Orbi divides its backhaul traffic between 2.4 and 5GHz., just that it has an available network on both bands. Works really well, totally stable.
