Well as of 9:29 PM last night, Wednesday December 29th, I installed V4.6.6.11_2.1.4.T.1. on the RBR and RBS.   After 5 days of being disconnected (4 hours after I left the house for 5 days) I have to try something to see if NG fixed it.   If this FW version tanks .... I will be shopping for another mesh system and this Orbi will be selling on eBay.  Crossing my fingers that this may fix the issue ... time will tell.  I will keep you all posted.

Please try the newer v4.5 version. 

It's only for the RBR. Turn OFF the RBS. 
I recommend a factory reset on the RBR and setup from scratch. Use same SSID name and PW as used before. Set up the RBR first, then I was able to turn on one RBS at a time and let them wirelessly sync. They synced with out having to press any buttons. If your don't you can of course thry the sync button process. I'd get both synced fully and make sure they report GOOD status. Then turn OFF and place in remote locations.

Let us know if you reset and setup from scratch after loading FW or just power OFF the RBR and RBS for 1 minute then back ON and observe the system.
