Possible that you may have a faulty RBS that needs replacing.

I see your FW is behind by one. Might want to update the RBS FIRST then the RBR lastly:
Factory reset and setup from scratch.
I would setup the system with the RBS in the same room as the RBR, one at a time.

Thanks, I have updated the firmware a few hours ago, but it is still not working 100%. A wired RBS50 is still on 5G and another RBS50, with the same setup, is working over wired. I have no clue why the first one is not able to connect as a wired connection.
Any idea?

How are the RBS connected to the RBR via ethernet? Directly to the back of the RBR or is there some LAN patch panel or LAN switch in between? If so, Brand and model of switch please.
What CAT# lan cable is being used? CAT6 is recommended.

Hi,
Thanks. I have 3 RBS, 2 off those are connected thru wired and 1 is thru wireless. However, 1 of those connected thru wired still shows in the browser that it is connected thru 5G and the other one say wired. I cannot get the second one working over the wired connection. Daise Chaining is set to off.
All satellites are working, wired and wireless, but the app still show that the 2 wired are not connected. Very strange.
