I don't see with my 870 series online currently. RBS wirelessly connected. Most any distances less than 30 feet in between the RBR and RBS, you may see issues. 25 feet or less is too close in between the RBR and RBS.
What is the size of the home in sq feet?
Only one RBS or more then one?
What FW version are you using?

5,200 sq feet home. RBR on 2nd floor. RBS #1 on 1st floor one floor below, a little less than 30 feet away. RBS #2 on third floor 40+ feet away from RBR, no issues.

So might try RBS1 placement and adjust it out a bit and see if the status stops changing or keeps this going...
