No network for 30-60 seconds when roaming between orbi wifi6 mini satelites
I have four orbi wifi6 mini devices, setup as AP (not router) to have a good network coverage. It give the impression is works pretty well since my devices are never disconnected even when roamin...

What firmware is the router and the satellites on?
What router is the Orbi connected to?
What modem/gateway is the primary router connected to?
Are the satellites hardwired in or using the wireless backhaul?
If wired in, what switch are they running through and how is everything wired?

Firmware is the latest: V4.2.3.102
It is connected to my Internet provider router (Orange), which is therefore also hosting the DHCP service.
The satellites are hardwired (all).
The SXR30 is plugged behind the Orange router and the SXS30 are plugged behind the SXR30, except one which is chained behind one of the SXS30. All are causing the same problem.
I hope this answers your questions.

What orange router is it?
So you have it going:
gateway---->wan port on SXR30-----lan port----->SXS30's directly?
No switches and nothing else connected to the gateway?
Do you have wifi on the gateway disabled?- CEL44Feb 23, 2023Tutor
Hi Plemans,
Thx for your time.
The Orange router is a "Livebox 5", latest model here in France.
The 2 SXS30 are connected behind the SXR30 and the third one is behind a SXS30.
gateway---->wan port on SXR30-----lan port----->SXS30
-----lan port----->SXS30 -----lan port----->SXS30
