I tried resetting the devices, moved them around, tried disconnecting devices, assigning a specific IP address to the laptop etc… nothing seemed to solve it.
Eventually, I just factory reset the RBR750 and both RBS750s, set the whole system up as new with a new SSID, and that seems to have done the trick. Everything has been working for about 12 hours now.Who knows….

There any big differences between the prior SSID name you had been using and this new one?
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
