Big Problems with Orbi "handoff" from router to Satellite while walking through house

I just bought the Orbi and I am experiencing problems when going from the room where the main Orbi router is, to the room where the Satellite is if I dont turn/toggle off/on the Wifi to "reconnect" to the Satellite unit. 

 

Obviously it is supposed to work seamlessly, but if I dont connect directly to the Satellite unit, I experience VERY slow speeds, probably because my phone/tablet/laptop, etc is trying to "hold" the signal from the router and doesnt handoff to the Satellite unit.

 

I am also getting extremely inconsistent speeds from the Satellite unit....at times I will get 50-75 mps, and at other times, 3-4mps.

 

Anyone else having these issues? I am on the latest firmware, etc.

 

Thanks!

Model: Orbi High-Performance AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi System (RBK50)
