I tried Netgear gigabit Five port switch I have. And the Issue went away. So the trend net switch is the issue. Thanks for all your help. It’s too bad because I wanted to use the 2.5 Gb switch for the bandwidth because I will be getting a 2 Gb connection to the Internet very soon. I will have to find another solution for a switch. Again thank you for your help.

Is this the first Orbi system you have had or have you had any others or anything else online? The 3rd RBS looks like a 8 series RBS that's connected..
How are the RBS connected to the RBR? Directly to the back or is there a LAN switch or wall jack or patch panel in between? IF there is a switch, what is the brand and model of this switch?

This is the first Orbi mesh system I have had. All previous routers have been disconnected and retired and are not connect to this system.
The Router is connected to the 2.5 gHz port to a TRENDnet 2.5 gHz unmanaged 5 port switch. Model: TEG-S350 /A.
That switch is then connected to the 2.5 gHz ports on both satellites. No other device is connected to this 2.5 gHz switch.
