Thanks for your comments.
And you disable ALL wifi radios on the BGW?
No, needed them to connect the wireless devices, just when testing without the Orbi.
With the Orbin connected, yes, all 3 wi-fi networks of the BGW are off.
Size of home in sq feet?
3600 sqf, 2 stories.
Distances between the RBR and the RBS?
one is about 40ft, with a few walls in between. Router is in the laundry area, inside a utility cabinet. The other satellite is on the 2nd story, almost above the router. about 20ft, give or take?
What channels are you using on the RBR when in AP mode?
- Channel, set to Auto
- Channel width: 20/40 MHz on 2.4, 80/160 on 5, 160/320 on 6

Yes, be sure that when Orbi is online, disable ALL wifi radios on the BGW.

For this size of home, the RBR and just one RBS would be needed. Might try turning OFF one RBS.

Channel, set to Auto <Try manual channel 11 and 44
