Thank you for checking. Is this on the web interface Attached Devices or on the Orbi 'app'?
This is what my Attached Devices Connection Status looks like:
If the satellites are connected at 2.4G, that is the problem. (not which unit they have connected to).
Building materials appear to be interfering with the WiFi link between orbi units. Either they are too far apart, or the material between them is too dense for WiFi to penetrate.
So the connection changing from red to green through the day. Also the connection type from 5ghz to 2.4ghz
Both still connect to the same router and not router -> sat -> sat
