Do a factory reset on the RBR and RBS and setup from scratch. If you want to update FW, do it by manually downloading FW files from NGs support site. Seen bad behaviors with users updating thru auto update or using the Orbi app. I prefer manually installation and reset after wards. Ensures good FW installation and operation after.

I have turned back the firmware to a previous one on both router and satellite! The app shows the satellite with a magenta dot even though the satellite pulses blue and devices with a lan cable from the satellite still connect just very poor speed!
Hope someone can help because it’s getting very frustrating
