You might want to upgrade the system to v30 as that is the most current version of FW. Update the RBS first, then the RBR lastly. Factory reset the RBS and RBR and setup from scratch. Walk thru the setup wizard with a wired PC and web browser.

How are the RBS placed in relation to the RBR? Out in a line or in a star configuration?
Daisy Chain is for RBS that are placed out in a line from the RBR and having two or more RBS. Might have to play with this some.

It’s gone down twice in the last 2 hours. What else should I try?
thank you for all your help

Lets remove the RBS from the system for a bit. Just turn them off. See if the RBR is stable by itself...
