Firmware is 2.1.4.10, I am aware a new version of 2.1.4.16 is out, I will need to update as soon as i can.
I can run through that troubleshooting process later, right now I need my network online while I work from home.

When you do update, do the satellite first then the router. I recommend upgrading FW manually by downloading the FW file and using IE11 or FF browsers with one wire connected PC with the satellite then the router.
