The same happened to me for a very simple reason: NBR750 latest firmware (4.6.5.11_1.5.66) and RBS750 latest firmware (4.6.14.3) are not compatible, period…
I had to connect to my three satellites using their IP and a browser and I reverted to the latest working firmware, 4.6.5.14.
This has been confirmed by Netgear support in my country.
They should put an advice on the support website for the NBK752 system!

Something I recommend you do if your still in contact the the support person at NG, Give them the serial number of the RBS or both RBS and NBR. Ask them to put these serial numbers in there AU system and block them.
Seems that there maybe a FW version disparage between the NBR and RBS where the version are too far apart and the newer FW version on the RBS maybe not compatible with the current version of NBR FW.
Hoping they can block the AU update on the RBS so you can keep the compatible RBS FW that works loaded.I would turn off the RBS for now until you hear back from NG on this. Just run the NBR for now.
I've asked NG to review this as well.

If you search for version 4.6.5.14 for the RBS750 in the support knowledge base, you’ll find a zip file for this software which, once loaded will allow the satellite to be viewed in the orbi app and the web interface when using it with the NBR750.
