AJ1234, stating "latest" firmware does not tell us what version is installed. If you are running v2.5.0.x firmware, it was retracted by Netgear after many bugs and stability issues were found. NG disabled autoupdate in recent releases due to the issues that it has caused. I suggest manually upgrading your RBR50 to v2.5.1.8 available from https://www.netgear.com/suppzio fort/product/RBR50.aspx#download if you are not already running it on the RBR50 router and all of the RBS50 satellites.
1. Backup your settings of the RBR50 router (in case you need to restore or revert)
2. Download the zip file for both the RBR50 router and any satellites you have
3. Unzip the files
4. Manually upgrade the firmware on the satellites first using their image file
5. Finally, upgrade the firmware on the RBR50 router using the RBR-v2.5.1.8.img file
