Distance could be at play here. If RBR and RBS are too close, then wifi signal overlap in between the RBR and RBS maybe causing fluctuations in signal thus causing the device to ping pong around and not able to stay locked on to one signal.
Might try turning OFF one of the RBS and see if this helps keep the device connected to one or the other signals...
