How do you update using the web interface?  I am having some issues.

    Thanks for finding the link.  Will save lots of typing (and errors!) as this question comes up all the time.

     

    I do have a tiny "quibble" with using orbilogin.com, which implies that the Orbi DNS function is operating correctly.  By the time people get desperate enough to perform a manual firmware update, things are not going well with their Orbi. Also, I seem to recall several users posting problems with "cannot reach orbilogin.com"  (If the Orbi is in AP mode, does the primary router resolve orbilogin.com to the correct IP?)

      Only one? Netgear's documentation is horrid and usually out of date.
