Update went smooth, no issues so far.
When it says above “ Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200” where do we change this please?

If a guest is connected to the router itself, they have internet access.
Satellites are individually ethernet connected to the router. If the satellites are wirelessly connected instead, the guest network works.
Gone through the usual factory reset, re-applying the FW, etc., etc.
Are the RBS ethernet connected directly to the back of the RBR or is there any LAN Switch in the middle or maybe a patch panel?
How was the system updated? Orbi app? RBR? or manually?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since the FW was updated?

Hmmm all my IP adresses start 10.XXX not 192.XXX is this a highly recommended thing or a just in case thing please?
If the Orbi has IP addresses starting at 10.x, this means the RBR is connected to an upstream router that uses 192.168.1.1 and the RBR detected this and changed to a 10.x pool string to avoid the conflict and two routers can not use same IP address pool when connected together.
