The Orbi is connected to the switch on two ports, G1 and G23. G23 is an unrouted vlan for outside the firewall traffic, G1 is the orbi LAN. One satellite is directly hardwired to the Orbi.
Wow. I am confused. The Netgear GS324 is an "unmanaged" switch, which in my limited experience means it knows nothing about VLANs.
If two of the Orbi LAN ports are connected to the same switch, that seems like a textbook example of a spanning tree problem.
It might help get an informed response if you could provide a rough diagram of how this is all set up.
