I have Orbi mesh set up in my home with 3 satellites and have a wifi signal several hundred feet from my house in all directions.  However, 3 of of my 4 cameras have virtually no signal.  I cannot see the cameras connected to my Orbi and I'm not sure why.

 

How do I get these cameras to pick up on the wifi mesh being sent from the satellites closest to them?  This is beyond frustrating considering I spent an extra $400 on Orbi satellites to ensure the cameras had good signal.

How are the cameras connected - WiFi or to a hub? The latter doesn't use your home WiFi so positioning of the hub and cameras is important.

Assuming you have the Ultra 2 the cams only connect to the Hub unlike some of the other newer cams that can connect to your Wifi so as jguerdat stated the mesh system is irrelevant. Repositioning as he said is important.
