I just got it working!!!
I connected both RBR and RBS to the cisco router. I got the ethernet backhaul working both on RBR web interface and in the android app.

What is the model# of the switch?
Managed and or having Green Ethernet features? If so, disable any IGMP protocols on the managed switch along with any Green Ethernet features if possible.
For non manged switches, if it has green ethernet features, you may have to get something with out. I know that D-Links DGS-105/108 series switches works fine with Orbi...

I have written it on my inital post.
The switch is a d-link DGS-1210-08P.
Does anybody know what kind of communication is between the orbis so that a cisco router can handle but not a switch?

Thats a managed switch. Did you disable ALL IGMP protocols on the switch. Can you disable any green ethernet features as well? I have a DGS1100 and have had it in between my RBR and RBS. IGMP all disabled.
D-Links DGS-105 and 108 series switches work fine with Orbi.
