Hello,
Since my last comments, I did nothing but changing the port that was connecting my RBR50 to the main router and somehow that did the trick, my connection been up for almost 24 hours now, with no issue. After I checked I saw that there is indeed a new FW update (2.5.1.32). However, when I checked for an update through my router setting page it is showing no new update available. Given that I have a stable connection now, do you guys think I should manually update to the new FW or do nothing since I have no issue now.

IF you have no issues or problems, it best to keep whats loaded for now. You can manually download v32 FW Files and apply them if you want to. Or just download them and keep them handly for later on. v32 is a minor FW update.
