What happens if you turn OFF the RBS and just run the RBR alone?
30 feet is recommended in between them to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

12-15 feet is too close to the RBR with the satellite.
Try turning off the RBS and see if the system continues to stop working every 1-2 days or this doesn't happen anymore.
