The reason I want to use a wired connection is that on wireless, the laptop keeps swithcing between satalite casuing disruption to the connection so I want to use a wired connection so it only connects to the satalite in question.
It does sound like your satellite isn't setup properly within your Orbi system, however your Windows laptop wireless behavior is also aomalous. You should not be experiencing disruptions to your wireless connection (even if you are moving around). You could also look for Windows-specific solutions so you can use wireless, e.g., make sure you have the latest wireless drivers for your Windows networking device.

I use Macs and never have any issue with either wired or wireless connections. I've checked that everything's up to date on the windows machine. I suspect it's an issue with the laptop rather than the satallite as everything else connected to it is fine.
I'll reset all the network settings on the Windows machine and set them up from scratch.
