RBR850/RBS850 4.6.3.9 Firmware problem
RBR850 in AP mode After updating to 4.6.3.9 (rbr850 and rbs850 s) lost CONNECTION (wireless) to my two satellites (RBS850). Tried wired (backbone), works. Switched to router mode all fine (wireless a...

Sounds like a good reason for a 30-30-30 Reset.
Also I just happen to stumble on this:
How often should you reboot your router . . .
Shouldn't need to reboot routers every so often, if thats the case, there maybe other problems.
I'm curious why the reset didn't work well...
So updated my 8 series in AP mode to v16 beta last Friday manually. After loading FW and system was back online. I powered everything OFF for a few minutes then back ON with the RBR first then RBS. No Factory Resets. All is working and stable in AP mode.

Well updating this post. After the reset then leaving the system powered off then caming back to it the next day and setting up in AP mode, has been stable since. Have not seen any RBS issues or reboots. I presume a full power OFF, maybe 5 minutes max should be tried for those of you seen odd RBS rebooting or sync issues on v4. This information was sent over to NG for review.
Good Luck.
Two Qs:- "The Erase Button on the RBR" - where is that?
Advanced tab/Administration/Backup.
- re: Connecting the the RBS Web Page and getting the connection error. This is still happening for me, on the beta and previous release - I have not upgraded to this latest version yet, but will this weekend. I notice it seems to only happen if I access the Connected Devices page. I have not done that in several days and the Status page still loads and works fine. Have you not seen that issue? I have not. I use MS Edge and Opera GX browsers when working with the RBRs web page. I just did a ERASE (factory reset) last week and after leaving the RBR and RBS OFF for 24 hours and back ON, system has been solid on v9 FW. Mines in AP Mode currently. v16 is being offered and will be loading this up this weekend.
