Thanks for a fairly well wrote out issue!
What type of materials is your house? Materials like stone, brick, concrete, adobe, plaster lathe all do great jobs of blocking signals.
You put that you've been having issues and needing to power shut down every week. Can you go into more details on why it requires rebooting? You put weak signals and dropped signals.
How far apart is the main orbi from the satellite? 30 ft minimum distance away is required.
If you do a hardwired speedtest at the router and at the satellite, what do you get? This helps with determining if its a backhaul or fronthaul issue.
What firmware are you on?
What modem is it you're connect to?
Are you sure its a wireless issue? When you're having issues is it a single device, all wireless devices, or wired and wireless devices having the issue?
