RBR50 and 3 RBS50: streaming issues during Zoom calls when connected to satellites, requests lagging
I have RBR50 working as AP connected to ASUS RT-N66R Router and three sats all over the house (RBS50). After my last update to V2.5.1.16 several months ago I noticed that when connected via satel...

Some intermediate results: I have tried all things, some of them are unavailbale since I'm using Orbi in AP mode, but majority are available.
So far the only thing that actually seems to solve my problem is Daisy Chain. I have turned it off although I have three sattelites. Before one of my sats was connected to router through the other sat, now all sats are connected to router directly. One of them shows yellow dot which stands for weak signal I guess, but the service is stable and speed is around 150 Mbs near that sattelite (it was 170 Mbs before). So I lost around 10% in speed but if it brings stability I'm ok with this.
Let me test this configuration for couple more days and I will let you know how it works.
Thank you!

AH I should have asked what mode your orbi was working in and if Daisy chain was enabled.
Sounds like it's working better for you with Daisy Chain disabled.

I'm having similar issues. Tried everything listed. Is yours still stable?

Well, I'm still testing. Majority of the time it works fine! So everyday I start my day with intention to mark abovementioned settings as a solution but... sometimes the problem returns... it's not so annoying now- just couple of seconds several times during an hour session and mostly in a daytime (mornings and evenings are fine, that makes me think that these remnants of my original problem is not in Orbi at all). My intention is to keep testing for another week and then I will decide, probbaly I will update the firmware.
I will keep you posted, and please share your solution if you are lucky enough to find it
