What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Has a factory reset been performed and setup from scratch since last FW update?
Does the RBR crash still if you temporarily turn OFF the RBS?
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and satellite(s)? 30 feet is recommended in between RBR and RBS to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.
What channels are you using? Auto? Try setting manual channel 1, 6 or 11 on 2.4Ghz and any unused channel on 5Ghz.
Any Wifi Neighbors near by? If so, how many?
