If the RBS750 is wanting to wirelessly sync to the RBR and not use the ethernet connection thru the Airbridge path, this means this path is not working correctly for the ethernet to the RBS to work right. Something on this path is blocking good traffic flow between the RBR and RBS. So the RBS will revert to wirelessly connecting. Something even if you could force it, would not work since something in the path is blocking or not working right.
Test this out by connecting the RBS750 directly to the back of the RBR850 and see if it connects wired there.
