Re: Can’t get anything to get wireless to router only Satelite
How do you know that the wifi is connecting to the satellites?
Orbi devices use the same SSID for all devices.
By the way on a Windows PC Alt+Print screen is a better way of getting screen grabs than a camera.

Re: Can’t get anything to get wireless to router only Satelite
It’s okay to disable daisychain in your instance. Fast Roaming isn’t necessary either. The other two advanced options will be of benefit for modern cell phones.
When doing a factory reset, I like using paperclip method, base first and then satellite with no connected devices. Use a wired PC to login to the Orbi and manually enter required configuration changes. Avoid loading saved backups unless and until you trust the setup.
The Orbi smartphone app does provide indicator of where a given device is connected. Likewise visible in the management console via browser interface.
