Attempting to setup (old) RBR50, unsuccessfully

Attempting to setup an RBR50 that I purchased over a year ago.  Initial setup appeared good.  Now unable to access Advanced tab (via either Orbilogin or IP address directly).  Additionally, firmware is 1.3.2 series.  Can't update since I can't get to the Advanced tab.  Tried a Factory reset and wind up back to same state.  Any suggestions welcome before the big trash can in the back yard.  Thank you.

  • Vaguely remember this happened under some conditions. Any Internet "security" stuff intercepting the Web traffic probably?

     

    I hope some Netgear moderator like Dustin_V  has some more ideas for the recovery, so a newer firmware image can be installed.

  • That would be expensive trash - try a different browser to start with.

      I have tried the three browsers I have on the PC.

      Agree.  My issue was getting the ability to apply the updates.  I've since taken the router and satellite to the level you suggest.
