RBR750/RBS750, disable radios on satellite
Good Day, I have run into issues where my satellite radios are interfering with the wireless backhaul. I am looking for a way to disable the Wifi radios on the satellite but leave the backhaul up...
You'll either need to reduce the power on the RBR to 25%, Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings
Or turn OFF the RBS since you may not really need it.

I agree with FURRYe38 that this conclusion is unusual. For the RBRE960 product, the User Manual shows these radio settings:
The UK would be Front Haul 36 and Backhaul 108. These channels do not overlap at all. If there is a problem with the WiFi backhaul, it is not likely to be the fronthaul radios.
Distance between router and satellite will not affect the performance of the backhaul radios. If anything, being "too close" will mean that the backhaul signal is greater, and thus more effective.
The reason there are no settings on the satellite to control radio channels or Transmit Power is because the router propagates settings to the satellite. If the router 2.4G radio or 5G radio is set to a certain channel, the satellite is automatically set to the same channel. Likewise, if the router Transmit Power is set to something other than 100%, the satellite radio is changed to match. The user has no control over the backhaul radio channel or power level.
Perhaps it would help to describe what is happening.
House size is small and RBS is just too close to the RBR. Cutting the power to 25% will help here.
Has nothing to do with the 9 series.
