If you haven't updated yet, I recommend it. Manually update the RBS first the RBR lastly using a wired PC and web browser.

  I recommend after the units are updated, Power them OFF along with the ISP modem/ONT for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP equipment first, then RBR, then RBS. Give about 5-10 minutes and system should be ready for operation. Observe from there.
  
  Also Brand and model # of your ISP equipment please.
