The past server firmware upgrades I have had to manually upgrade both the satellite and router. Any thoughts. I am thinking I will have to try and reset the main router. If I do this will I need to reset the satellite too?

Have you factory reset the RBR and RBS, have the RBS in the same room as the RBR then walk thru the setup wizard to see if it picks up the new FW update for both RBS and RBR? I would use Edge, IE11 or Firefox browser to try this.
