Hey Flash!
Sorry to hear you're having such a terrible experience with the orbi. Like you I too had many issues with mine. However, with a little tinkering I've managed to stabilize the orbi and wifi calling works properly with little to no drops.
I'm definitely not as technical as you are so I apologize if I'm giving you advice you may have already tried.
I had read on different postings that the orbi router seemed to keep losing its ip connection and that somebody out the router on a static ip and it improved performance significantly. I'm assuming you're running the orbi in AP mode so maybe try giving the router a static ip?
It's worked wonders for me. The only time I notice drops is when my device is switching between the router and the satellite. This seems to occur more when I'm in close proximity to the satellite. I'm not too sure why my mobile device likes to hop between 2.4 and 5 when I'm right next to the satellite but it happens so rarely that I'm okay with it until they improve the firmware.
I hope you're willing to give it a shot because I honestly have no clue why it helped but it has helped me.
Best of luck and pls keep us posted on what device you switch your orbi too!
