850 with two satellites - what exactly does "out of sync" mean?
(sorry if you are seeing this twice - it didn't seem to post the first time but I may be wrong) RBR850 + 2x RBS850 V4.6.3.16_2.0.51 1~Gig fibre into RBR I obviously understand the regular Englis...

Are both RBS wirelessly connected to the RBR?
Means that the data the RBS needed from the RBR has not been fully recieved by the RBS.
One reason is that the FW is not up to date on this one RBS and same version as RBR.
What is the size of your home? Sq Ft?
What is the distance between the router and 📡 satellite(s)? 30 feet or more is recommended in between RBR and RBS📡 to begin with depending upon building materials when wirelessly connected.

Or wireless sync didn't go right. Try connecting the RBS to the RBR using ethernet cable for 10 minutes, then disconnect to see if this stops the out of sync message from being seen.
Might need a factory reset on the RBS and remove the RBS entry from the RBRs web page then re-sync the RBS to the RBR. Turn OFF the other RBS. After it's fully synced and status remains, then turn on other RBS.
