I'd try your ISP modem back in router mode. Use it's DMZ for the RBR. Be sure any wifi radios on the ISP modem are disabled while it's in router mode.

I followed all your steps, upgraded firmware and reset everything according to your suggestions but still youtube.com lagging/buffering on Windows browsers. Everything is working normal except youtube.com and youtube apps on apple, samsung tv and on android working normal and no lagging. I have testet LAN and wireless and same problem on both. There is no signal problem, ever i sit near router or satellite youtube.com lagging/buffering on windows devices.
Already disabled Armor, Smart Parental Controls or Circle, Traffic Meter
Modem is on Bridge mode and the model is Zyxel EX5401

And does this still happen if you turn OFF all RBS and just wirelessly connect to the RBR alone?
Are speed test results using Ooklas installable speed test app on ethernet and wireless working to spec for the ISP speed you pay for UP and DOWN?
Be sure to disable any MAC Address randomizers on phones and pads while at home:

Set 20/40Mhz Coexistence to 40Mhz only. Set CTS to 64. Set Short preamble instead of Long preamble modes. Save settings and reboot the router and satellite(s). Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR📡 and RBS🛰️ to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
