I have downloaded these two files. When i try to manualy upload the .img file of the Satellite to the Satellite (the first step for the update of the mesh system), i get aan Failuer popup. See screenshot please.

You wrote the following " Seems like you have non V2 FW loaded on your system..." how can i load V2 FW if my system is not V2?
Thansk for your response!

  You can try this:
  https://kb.netgear.com/000059634/How-to-upload-firmware-to-a-NETGEAR-router-using-Windows-TFTP
  Need to press the reset button for 30 seconds then release, then it send to PUT the command and upload the FW.
  
  If this fails, I would make contact with NG support to ask for additional help on this.

    Hi FURRYe38,
    
    Thanks again for your response. I was reading your suggestion, at that moment i had this question, should i first do this for the Satellite and then for the Router. At that moment i decided to logon in to the Satellite (Ip address), so NOT throw http://orbilogin.net/.
    On the Satellite Webinterface i found Firmware option, i've tried this way and i was able to update the FirmWare!
    The i made the connection to the Router and it was possible to upfdate the FirmWare of the Router
    
    At the first FirmWare update attempts, i followed the Netgear manual, whitch in my case has not worked to update both of the Satellite and the Router together.

    Manually update satellite firmware We recommend that you update your
    satellite’s firmware before you update the router’s firmware.
    To manually update your satellite’s firmware:
    1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to your
    Orbi network.
    2. Enter orbilogin.com.
    A login window opens.
    3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
    The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
    that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
    The BASIC Home page displays.
    4. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Firmware Update > Manual Update.
    The Firmware Update page displays.
    5. Select the check box next to your satellite’s model name.
    If you have more than one satellite, only update one satellite at a time. You must wait
    for the first satellite to finish updating before updating the next satellite.
    6. Click the Update button.
