I recommend a power OFF the the RBR and RBS for 1 minute then back ON with the RBR first then RBS.
Should be fully synced after this.
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Hi my experience is as follows:
I have 1 x RBR50 and 2 x RBS50s all were on V2.7.4.24
I just updated my 2 x RBS50 satellites from the Orbilogin and used the manual option (downloaded the new v2.7.5.4 and extracted to a dedicated folder. This worked successfully and both satellites were showing green in the app however one has dropped to amber status but still working. However the RBR50 is not showing in the Orbilogin as needing a firmware update see screenshot below
When I go to manually update I see the RBS50s only which are up to date see screenshot below:
I am concerned as this update carries critical security fixes I would like to have the RBR50 aligned with the RBS50s, I believe its good practice to have them in synch for performance reasons. Please can anyone help me I am UK based.

Log into the RBS web page using the IP address given to them by the RBR. Use the RBS web page to update FW there.
Always be sure to update the RBS first, the the RBR lastly.
