Hello Orbi Community!
Thanks as always for the amazing engagement in this NETGEAR community. We are aware of the bug where an Orbi satellite that isn’t in your system occasionally shows in the Network Map in the Orbi app. This is a display issue in the app and not a security issue and there is no functional impact of this bug. We are working on a fix for it which we expect to roll out soon.
Thank you for your patience.
Regards,
Christian

It seems that there is an issue only with the mapping app. Everything else is working just fine.
