Cannot Update Orbi RBW30 Firmware to 2.3.5.6

The other manual update options for each individual satelite require passwords since they are on different internal IP's. I have no idea what these are since I never set them.
How are you approaching the RBW30?
In your Orbi router, try:
- Advanced
- Administration
- Firmware Update
- Manual Update
- Check the RBW30
- Feed in the router's password
- Browse for the file
- Upload
If it falls over, let us know where and what happens.

The Orbi router Attached Devices page should show the satellites at the top, including the IP address of each satellite. Use a web browser and go to http://(that IP). The credentials should be "admin" and the same password as the Orbi router.

The credentials should be "admin" and the same password as the Orbi router."Should be" may underestimate things.
I just went and looked. I can see no way of changing the management password.
But we need feedback from taperanger before we can say much more.
