What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and 40 to 48 channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?

Hello Furry,
I use the version: V3.2.18.1
My network provider is Free with the freebox revolution
I have a have of 60m2 on 2 floors
I began by use a patch panel :
From my box to my orbi router (in router mode) and from my router to my patch panel and to my orbi satellite (in ethernet).
As it was not working, i try to put 8m without ethernet between my router and my satellite but it didn't work also.
This is my channel settings
| Region | Europe |
| 2.4G Channel | Auto (13) |
| 2.4G Wireless mode: | Up to 1147 Mbps |
| 5G Channel | 36 + 40(P) + 44 + 48 |
| 5G Wireless mode: | Up to 2402 Mbps |
4 others wifi received.
I will try to set the channel manually but i have the feeling that the trouble come from the IP assignation
