I did unplug all my Google Homes and left them unplugged for a few minutes. When they came back online they went to the right satellite, but switched back to the router after some time. Some did stick though on the correct router after unplugging, plugging back in a few times.
My phone does switch to the correct satellite, but then switches to a different satellite or back to the router as I move around the house. I have a newer phone, OnePlus 9 Pro (Android).

Also try turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
