- Jan 25, 2019To complete the firmware upgrade I had to first do several of the firmwares before the current. Pick one that is a few above your version and see if it takes it.

Fustrating process but it got me to current.

First download v2.0.0.74 and v210 for both router and satellite(s). While you have the satellites connected, send the v.74 file to the satellites first, then send the file to the router. Once both of those are updated and back online, send the v210 FW to the satellites, then send the FW to the router. Should be updated and working then. A reboot of the entire system should be done after completing the FW upgrade process.
