How do I refresh the status of the PCs in my One Care Circle?

My Father's PC had a problem which meant the status showed up Amber on my
PC. He's now cleared the problem - his status is Green - but his PC is still
showing Amber on mine.

If his PC is remote to yours, meaning it isn't on the same LAN, the
communication needs to go through the server. If it is on the local network -
that is, your PCs are both behind the same router, the status on the hub should
update pretty quickly unless there is a connectivity issue between the two PCs.
How long ago was the problem on his PC?
