What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Try enabling Beamforming and MIMO(MIMO may or may not be needed) and WMM. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

You'll not see anything near 900Mpbs on 5Ghz AC. Most devices max out at around 400-500Mbps depending upon there design and support. WIred speeds you should see near 900Mpbs. Orbi is cabable of that on the wire only.
Thank you very much! I'll try these and let you know how it goes. Appreciate it.
