RBS850 - Out of sync - wired instead of wireless - Continuos blue circle light

I am having so many issues with my Orbi Mesh System. The last week I continously see the blue circly light on continously on 1 of the 2 satelites. Sometimes it turns off and then it happens again. It might stay on for hours. I have read many posts about people with same issue and it resolved by resetting the Satelite. I did this and the same happened again. I rebooted the router and the satelite with the satelite a couple of feet from my router RBR850. When it came back online it said "out of sync" on the backhaul. I waited and waited and nothing. I then disconnected the Satelite from power and turned it back on. I get a "wired" backhaul connection in my portal. I have never had the satelites connected by ethernet so no idea why that would show. I disconnected the satelite again. Removed the satelite from the "connected devices" and it synced the satelite again with the router. This worked for a moment showing the satelite is connected on 5G on the backhaul. I then have to disconnect the satelite to move it back to its orginal place and see there is a poor connection on the backhaul. I move both the router and the satelite away from the wall and the connection becomes "good". Seems the range is very poor on these devices as the satelite is literally on the floor right above the router only 12 foot above. That is kinda the reason I bought this system so I can have internet in the whole house and not place the satelites in the same room as the router. I go back to my pc and now see that both satelites show they are connected "wired" on the backhaul.

So you place the satellite in the exact position that will have the worst possible WiFi connection strength and your wondering why the signal is poor!
