Hello,
I did not realize I created a new topic. I was replying to another post saying that I encountered the same issue. I am still in testing process.
Firmware Version is V1.1.7.12
IOT: Calix Giga Point 803G Model No: 100-04255 12
The house is 1400 sq foot one level with a detached 800 square foot garage. Makes the satellite right around 40' between each of them. MR in the middle.
I will check on RBS setting. 2.4 is on CH8 and 5 is on CH36(42).
Yes, this occurs with wired and wireless devices. The wired device got internet back before the wireless did. As soon as I unplugged Satellite and both switch to Wi-Fi on the main internet works right away. I have not had a chance to get in the app to see what it shoes for the link status between MS and MR. I am aware the MS can only be wired to MR.
I have not performed a rest a long time, so I know it has updated since a reset for sure.

Kind of a small home size for having two MS deployed. Does this happen if you turn OFF one of the MS?
What is the distance from the MR to the MS?
Try channels 1 and 40 or 11 and 48.
I see there is a more newer version of FW as well: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/mk83
Lets try a factory reset as well.
