I own an RBK854 set and since the last update version 7.2.6.21
I own an RBK854 set and since the last update version 7.2.6.21 the WiFi signal/the complete system has been very! unstable.
All the RBS take turns offline and then go online again after a few secon...

Moving the switch to the Orbi router would place everything on the same LAN subnet except for the television sets.

You stated that you had updated the rbr FIRST and then the 3 rbs. I believe the instructions say to always do the satellites first. Not sure if that is what the problem is or not. Also can you confirm all units are on the same FW version? Lastly, not sure if it is typical to perform a full factory reset after FW but did something go wrong there?
My setup is very vanilla and yours seems pretty complex, perhaps a feature was deprecated or broke a configuration you have. I used the webUI to firstly update the satellite and then lastly update the router. I performed a reboot and everything works and my service has been stable with no random disconnects or reboots of units.

Ah sorry, I should have said (typing error): i updated the three RBS first than the router.
There was no error during the reset.
And also not when performing the FW update.
I've tried first to make the set work without the reset.
Due to the instability I did a full reset but the same errors persisted.
I'm trying something new, i've disconnected one RBS, and see if the problemm occure because the RBS is to close to the RBR (this was not a problem before the FW update, i did not move any units after the update, but you never know if this is a problem now)- PeterJGVDPDec 05, 2023Guide
Update: the problem still occurs...
