Status lights in the Network Map of the Orbi App
Note: this is NOT a question about the lights in the Orbi satellites themselves.
I have the AC3000 system, RBR50 router and two satellites. Setup went pretty much as expected, with not problems...

I have moved the router around so broad side is facing satelitte, I reset the satelitte to factory settings and moved it about a foot closer to router. I have a weatherboard house and live in Australia. So far after reset and changing positions of both I have had good backhaul for 14 hrs. I haven't diabled fast browsing or MIMO yet as I don't want to mess anything up now it's good. I have however got slower speeds since the upgrade to 2.1.4.16

Ok, hope it works better.
I would disable MIMO, Daisy chaing and fast roaming. It wont hurt anything to test with them disabled. Try this later on.

Thanks, I have daisy chain disabled, I'll wait till morning before messing with any other settings.

Just updating, I have had good backhaul on the satellite for close to a week now and haven't changed any settings or moved the router and satellite since my last post. I'm going to leave it alone now and hope it keeps working. thanks for all the advice.
