Be sure to factory reset the RBR and RBS and setup from scratch. Power OFF the ISP modem/ONT for 30 seconds then back ON as well during the reset.
Be sure both RBR and RBS are on same version of FW.

don't waste your time with resets etc. The .104 firmware version is buggy and the only fix that worked for me was to roll it back. I assume it must be working for some people or it should have been pulled/an update released. Maybe it only affects specif versions of the RBR40 but this caused me no end of trouble for a few days especially since it looked connected but nothing was working. My observation is that DNS resolution/DNS server hangs and stops working so you cannot reach any sites.

If the reset doesn't work as last resort, then by all means, revert back to what has worked for you.
Resets have worked for others and is a valid troubleshooting step.
Good luck.
