What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Do these devices have there own wifi signal?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try enabling Beamforming and MIMO(MIMO may or maynot be needed) and WMM. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Try disabling the following and see:
Daisy Chain, Fast Roaming, IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).

Thank you for the response I have the arris surfboard sb8200 it's just a cable router no wifi capabilities. The sat is in that range and I did switch everything to channel 6 after using a device to see whose using what channels around me. 6 was open. I set the Orbi to 40 but it's still dropping.
