Firmware 2.5.0.36 release notes
Hi, Just got a new firmware on my RBK50. version is 2.5.0.36. Are there any release notes for this firmware please?
- Sep 30, 2019The notes are now there, I upgraded and lost the "attached devices". Although all my devices connected succesfully after the upgrade only 7 devices showed on the list instead of the usual 20+ and 5 of them were not named correctly.
Reverted back to previous firmware and the list is now functioning correctly. First problem I've had with the firmware, so I've never factory reset or anything. If i get a chance i might try that later (or just stay on 2.3.5.30 !)

I've got the same question. Happened to go into Admin on my Orbi's and explore a little. Clicked on firmware and it tells me 2.5.0.36 is available. This release isn't listed on the Orbi support home page so probably not going to install it for a while.
