1. what modem/gateway is the orbi connected to?
2. what firmware is on the router and the satellites?
3. have you noticed a difference if different devices try zoom? (basically do they all have the issues or just one)
4. have you noticed if its a difference from devices connected to the router or the satellite?

What mode is the ONT in? Router or bridged?
Try the Orbi system in AP mode with the ONT in router mode and test Zoom.
