What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz. Channel 5 should not be set as a manual channel.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Try disabling the following and see:
IPv6 and Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Set Short preamble instead of Long preamble modes. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s).
Be sure that CTS and RTS values are changed to 2346 under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings

I made in addition the following adjustments:
I have sonos at home on channel 1, so I'm on channel 5 in 2.4G, there are no nearby speakers so there is little noise.
Cohabitation 20/40MHZ disabled
cts/rts threshold at 2347 and short preamble mode for 2,4 and 5ghz networks as well.
Another problem I have a subscription ISP 1Gbs down and 500 Mbs up,
I check it on an apple tv connected in wifi via speedtest about 960 mbps downlink and 500 mbps uplink, but when I do the test in wifi with a wifi 6 device (iphone 11), I get painfully 330 mbps downlink while I have 500 mbps uplink, weird right?
On the forum there is a lot of disconnection problem on this product, isn't it a firmware problem ? ( I downloaded the last one )
Can you help meTranslated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Good morning, sir,
The internet provider is bouygues telecom.
I made your settings but it's not better.
I specify that I'm in access point mode, so the settings are limited for example any unused channel on 5Ghz.
The house is 150m2 and the 2 systems are 7m apart.
There is no Wifi Neighbors near .
