Orbi RBR 750 very unstable connections with things connected through satellite
I started noticing that i was getting the correct ping speeds in some parts of the apartment and horrible in others. My apartment is about 1600 sq ft with drywall, and I use one satellite to go along...

Try setting manual channel 1 on 2.4Ghz and 40 channel on 5Ghz.
Does this happen with the RBS turned OFF?
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

What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What channel configurations are currently set on the router?
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

So the firmware cersion is V7.2.631_5.0.24
2.4 ghz channel is in auto
5 ghz channel is 48
The modem is a nokia g-2425g-b
As said in another post i have two neighbors on my floor, 3 below and 3 above but the building structure is solid concrete.
Look forward to your feedback!

unfortunately, this didn't fix it. Any other suggestions? Appreciate the help!

I'd downgrade the RBS first back to v.21 then the RBR lastly.
Factory reset and setup from scratch after both units are loaded back to v.21.Highly recommend following these PDFs to do it:

Sorry for responding so late, and despite what I wrote last week this seems to have been the fix. It did not happen immediately, so when I first applied these changes I still had the problem. But 24 hours later the satellite started working properly.

Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
