The house is wired with CAT5E, the two working satellites are on the same network wired the same way, the only difference between them is that they were setup last week along with the router. Wheras the other two were added this week. I will take a look at that firmware post. I am not opposed to running a manual update on all of them, I am familiar with that process.
You might swap locations with the working RBS to see if problem follows.

Test each RBS out while in same room with the RBR and good working LAN cable to test them out.
