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
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
Have you loaded v11.2 on everything then factory reset and setup from scratch, set CTS/RTS values to max then see if problem reappears?

I haven’t adjusted the channel— it is auto currently so will try changing it.
Wifi neighbors— normally 1 sometimes 2 show up.
One is more then 30 ft, blue does flash blue when syncing.
I did a factory reset after it automatically pushed the firmware back to v3.2.10.11.
CTS/RTS were changed and all Orbi systems rebooted.
