orbi satellite not connected with nearest satelie?

[atiq020]

i got one orbi router upstairs and 2 satellite are downstairs. one near to router is connected BACKHAUL ISGOOD and 2nd satillte is near to first satelltite but its connected with upstairs router so in this case backhaul is always POOR. I notice when first statelite conncect with 2nd satillte and then router backhaul both satellite are GOOD 

My question is how do i keep this chain saved so i can receid both GOOD ?

MIght power off both RBS, Then power on the nearest RBS to the RBR first and let it sync, then power ON the farther RBS and see if it syncs to the 1st RBS if it's out in a line from the 1st RBS.

What orbi model do you have? 

Sometimes, even with a poor backhaul, the satellite can still have better speed than if its connected back through another satellite. A couple things to try. 

1. moving the satellites around. they should have at least 30 ft between router/satellites to function properly. 

2. actually test the speed of that satellite by hardwiring into it. Like I said, sometimes even a poor connection maxes out your speed. So hardwire a pc/laptop into it and see what speeds it gets.
