I am not sure what the "fully synced" means. The attached devices tab shows devices connected to both the router RBR-40 and the to the satellite RBS-40.

Fully Sync means the status shown on the RBRs web page shows GOOD or Wired for RBS that are ethernet connected.
Can you log into the RBS web page at it's assigned 192.168.0.# IP address?
Which devices are getting the different IP address from 192?
What Firmware version is currently loaded on the RBR and RBS?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
