If found the solution.
By changing the IP configuration to DHCP, the magenta ring disappeared. While scanning the network, I cannot determine a double IP.

Hello Tom4Net,
Welcome to the NETGEAR Community!
I understand that you are having network disconnections with your RBR20 Orbi Mesh System.
This issue can be solved by following the troubleshooting steps below:
First, disconnect your Orbi Mesh system from your main router.
Then, ensure that there is network connection coming from that router. Next, add the router in AP mode and verify connectivity.
Finally, If there is connection add each satellite one at a time.
Best,
Kevin
