Seen this as most of the time is the client device trying to decide which signal source to connect too. Thus causes a repeating log entry.
You'll need to find out what .47 is coming from. Is something on your system that is being connected to the Orbi system. What all do you have connected?
What Firmware version is currently loaded? V4.6.14.4_2.3.12

192.168.1.47 popped up in the device list, its a directtv box
Is the Direct TV box wireless or ethernet connected to the CBR?
One or two RBS deployed?

Try setting an IP address reservation on the CBR for the DirectTV device?

4 RBS in that size of home, maybe too many RBS. The CBR and just 1 RBS will work.

I get away with a CBR and just 1 RBS in my 5000sq ft home 3 levels including basement where the RBS gets deployed.
