What happens if you turn OFF either RBS and use just 1 RBS?
CTS values to 2347 under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
What channels are you using on the RBR?

Hi FURRYe38 here are the answers to your questions.Modem: Motorola MB8611 (I own)
Internet Service provider: Comcast Cable (I get ~200MB download speed)
Home Sqr feet: 2800 sq ft two story
Router wired to Satallite1 (not connected via Lan switch) on opposite sides of house
Satallite2 is about 20-30 feet away from Satallite1 (on same side of house as Satallite1)
I've rebooted via software reboot and physical unplugging power to reboot all router and satallites (yes waiting more than a 1 minute)

FURRYe38 Here is what worked for me and steps:
- I unplugged Modem, Router & both Satallites
- Removed the wired backhaul (I think NG has a bug with wired backhaul)
- powered up modem waited from full startup
- then powered up Router waited until I can see router as connected in Orbi app
- Powered up 1 Satallite and again waited for it to full connected and be online
- Powered up 2 Satallite and again waited for it to full connected and be online
Once I completed these steps all the devices were able to connect and things seem to be back to normal. I should be able to use a wired backhaul but in with this current FW it's buggy and I believe it was what was causing the issues for me at least.
