I have a similar issue with my RBR850 but I'm on V7.2.6.21
flyingdutchgeek I have a similar issue with my RBR850 but I'm on V7.2.6.21, wired backhaul and every time I look at the satellite its either magenta, white and blue. I disabled the firmware update...

Yes, RBS was wirelessly connected to the RBR.
No, the wifi devices auto connected to the RBS and (maybe this was the same thing you said) then I physically connected the ethernet devices to the RBS and the wireless shut off on the RBS and wireless devices lost the connection.
It's not the Hue Hub or Apple AX. I don't think its the Netgear SW but it is interesting that the SW is showing up as a satellite on the Orbi app and I don't recall ever seeing it on the web page but now shows up at the top with the RBS

So I see one wired and another wireless connected. I presume the wireless one is the problematic one? or is it the wired one? Trying to keep this in line here.
The wireless should not shut off on the problem RBS if you connect ethernet devices behind the RBS...
