In AP mode, the router is getting its wan/ip info from the primary router its connected to. The magenta is indicating there's an issue with that.
What do the LEDs on my Orbi router and satellite mean? | Answer | NETGEAR Support
Maybe you're lease time is expiring on the router that's acting as primary. Maybe go into it and set it with a static IP address.
Now you put the RBS is going magenta. Just the satellite or the router too?

Thank you. I have already set the IP address of the Orbi router to be static and it still occurs. It is the router that is going magenta.
