What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
Try turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Then power OFF the wireless RBS for 1 minute then back ON, it should connect to the other RBS...
Orbi AX systems never had Daisy Chain options in the FW UI.

Thanks Furry,
I already did al those steps based on posts I found in this community, non of them helped.
Is there no other magic trick? Or do we just wait for another FW release where they will fix those bugs (It worked perfectly in the past)
Kind regards

If you turn OFF the RBR for 1 minute then back On, does the farthest RBS connect to the other RBS?
