Please download v2.0.0.74 for the RBR and RBS. Update the RBS first, then update the RBR to v2.0.0.74 lastly. After that you can apply v60 to the RBS. You may need v212 for the RBR first then v60. Use a wired PC to do this update process.

v2.0.0.74 should work. Be sure you use Safari or Firefox browsers. Factory reset both RBS and RBR. You can update the RBS first with out conneting it to the RBR with a wired PC/Mac. Wire connecrt a PC to the RBS and wait for the PC to get an IP address. Log in to the RBS web page at 192.168.1.250. Log in admin and PW is password.
Mac shouldn't be a factor however if you have a windows PC, please try IE11 or FF browser there.
Be sure your unpacking the .zip files to reveal the actual FW update file.
