Firmware (2.7.5.6 ???) : RBR50 & RBS50

I have recently been experiencing very regular drops of my RBR50 & satellites. I have updated the firmware on the RBR50 from the config page and it applied V2.7.5.6 and all appears to be OK.

 

I thought I needed to keep my satellites in sync with the same version but they wont download automatically and I cant find a download for v2.7.5.6 ANYWHERE?

 

Is there a link anywhere that will allow me to download v2.7.5.6 so I can update my satellites manually? 🙂

    So using the RBRs web page doesn't show the RBS having any FW updates?

      So, it said the RBR could/should be updated (from the actual admin/config page on the RBR itself). It downloaded and installed automatically.

      The RBS wants a location for the firmware as it won't update automatically. Hence me now looking for that to keep them aligned.

        I have just figured it out. The phone app does not offer the update for the RBS when logging in as admin. ... The full web page flavour does show it.

      That's it needed to access via true web page not phone app to get that extra functionality. Thanks.

        Ah, there you go. Ya, I don't recommend using the Orbi app or a mobile device to update the system. Wired PC and web browser is best. 

         

        After the system is updated, I'd power everything OFF for 1 minute then back ON with the RBR first, then RBS lastly. Should be good after that.
