Apologies for the delay in responding but I have now followed your suggestions including wiring one console directly to a satellite and amending the settings in the orbi.

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves tine if a reset is needed.
