I've been having the same problem since installation.
This is typical about 10% of the time. After a few seconds it reloads, though sometimes the website hangs.
There is no ISP router/modem, just a direct connection to an antenna. I use static ip addresses and static DNS info (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) google.
I had no problem with my old Linksys router.

Just updated firmware to V3.2.16.22_1.4.9

Is IPv6 enabled on the RBR?
I would open a support ticket with NG and let them know what your seeing.
Thankl you.
