How is the RBR connected to the host router? WAN port of the RBR the host router or ISP router? Should be using the RBRs WAN port to connect to the up stream routers LAN port.
How is the RBS connected to the RBR? Wireless or ethernet?

Main Router is LAN to WAN of AP router through a HP Curve 48 port switch, One Satellite located in the same area as the AP router Wired to same 48 port Switch. 2 Satellites are wireless covering the Lake side, and back yard side outdoors.
Different SSIDs for the Main Router, and only man Wireless enabled on AP, and a different SSID. I did not generate a New Backhaul Password, one Slave is 40' in the air on a pole that is a real bear to get down if I have to press a sync button, and its the one that all the Security cameras in the back go through.
If I power down the satellites and main router, generate a new backhaul Password on the AP Router, would that prevent this, I would have thought every router would be different already.

What model# is this switch?
Need to move the ethernet connection for the RBS from this switch to a LAN port behind the RBR. Any and all RBS that are ethernet connected BH, need to be connected in serial behind the RBR unit. https://kb.netgear.com/000051205/What-is-Ethernet-backhaul-and-how-do-I-set-it-up-on-my-Orbi-WiFi-System 📡 ‌‌🛰️
Can not be in parallel.

The Satellite is meant for the main router, not the AP router. AP router is all by itself with its own SSID.
Switch is a HP 2920-48G-POE+ Switch (J9729A)
