SO the RBS is wirelessly connected to the RBR when you have the WPA setting? How long are you waiting to refresh the RBS page when you check the status here?

 

Do you have 1 or 2 RBS?

I have 1 RBS. I checked it after 1 or 2 minutes. But the RBS has been running for some time now, 30mins, with ethernet backhaul directly connected to the RBR Lan port. It's still reporting no security on 5GHZ.
