For those having the random reboots and disconnects from the Sattelites, I'd like to share my experience that I think may help. I have the RBK53 from costco (1 RBR50 and 2 RBS50s). I was having the issue that many have been complaining about regarding constant disconnects and random reboots. After looking at my 30+ devices, I realized that some of them were attempting to connect to the same IP address as the sattelites, causing all this mess. Everytime there was a reboot, the sattelites would come back with a different IP. I went in and set both sattelites to static IPs of 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3, and then set the DHCP range from 192.168.1.4-50 and have not had a problem since. I will try the newest firmware, but I doubt that I will have any issue moving forward as the previous 4 firmware updates have been stable. Give it a try, and I hope it helps some of you out.
