I could be wrong, but that looks like mites. I would give it a spray with some neem, another in one week, another in two weeks, and once a month after until you are sure you have taken care of the little buggers.

Also, I would not repot as they love to be potbound. You might try some artificial lighting, they really do like quite a bit of light. Mine are outside, and get just a bit less light than my cattleyas.
