No. Set up a IP address reservation for your devices ON the RBR. Use a web browser and connect to the RBRs web page. Set a IP address reservation for your devices under Advanced tab/Setup/LAN setup.
30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected. https://kb.netgear.com/000036466/How-far-should-I-place-my-Orbi-satellite-from-my-Orbi-router
I'ts up to devices to pick and choose where they connect too. You may need to adjust the RBS placement. When the Signal drops at a RBS, once it comes back, you will need to reboot the device to get it to re-connect to the closer RBS.

I thought that the same thing. Thank you for the confirmation and additional advice and resources. I will look into the reboot idea for the actual device. Hope you have a great day.
