Orbi 770 unstable

I have a relatively new 770 router and 2 satellites. It has become completely unstable, dropping satellites, dropping internet connection to provider router. Simply stopping. I’ve rebooted, I’ve done factor reset and restart . It works for a couple of days then stops.

before I boot it out to the rubbish tip has anyone got any ideas

What firmware are you running?
&nbsp;
Is the backhaul wired or wireless?
&nbsp;
Are any multigig ethernet cables at least cat 6?

Before working on satellites, I'd focus on the router---gateway part.&nbsp;
What modem/gateway do you have from your ISP?&nbsp;
Turn off the satellites and just have the orbi router connected to the ISP's gaetway.&nbsp;
Anything wired to that? Watch for stability. I always start with the first step in the process because its easy to blame the mesh but it won't work well without a stable connection.&nbsp;
I've got the 770v1 and v2 and they've been incredible stable.&nbsp;

Size of home in sq feet?
Distance between the RBR and RBS in feet? 30 feet is starting distance in between them.
Channels being used on the RBR? Try 1 and 40 or 11 and 48?

Backhaul is wireless. Ethernet cable from internet router is current. The satellites work for 24 hours os so and the just drop out . Rebooting and resetting takes forever and should just not be part of a mesh system requirement&nbsp;

2000 squ ft house. One satellite is 30 ft away from router that other is double that, but when up they Daisy chain&nbsp;
