The other issue I noted it all my devices cling to my router. I am on the 3rd floor with my TV that has great signal to the satellite and poor signal to the router and it reflects connected to the router. The satellite is connected fine but every device in the house defaults to the router and does not connect to the satellite.
Try turning down the power output of the RBRs wifi radios from 100% to 50% and see if this changes anything. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings. Might help with some devices to connect to the RBS rather than the RBR.
