Let's hope for success.

My system firmware not auto-updated yet.
My current firmware (v2.1.4.16) setup is stable and trouble-free. I definitely won't manually update it if I'm going to face the same setup problems that I had to go through during the initial setup (ie system was only successfully setup after multiple attempts of updating the firmware and installing the 3 lan-linked satellites in a very specific sequence).
Netgear should either improve the firmware update process or include a comprehensive setup guide with specific steps (for satellites using wireless and wired backhauls) to save us the headache.

"If it's working, don't fix it."
Keep the manual update in mind should the auto update process not work for you.
Seems to work for others.
I agree, the FW update process needs major inprovements.
