Firmware v2.5.1
New version available. Based on the description, doesn’t seem worth the disruption. New Version: V2.5.1.8 Release Notes: [Bug Fix] Fixes JP/AU/CA region can't firmware update issue. [Bug Fix] F...
Can’t edit original post to point out the update is offered through the iOS app.
Actually if you log in into the web based admin page for the router and satellites it also shows as an available firmware update.
I am using v2.3.5.34 and login to orbilogin.com on my router does not show any updates available.
Model Name Device Name Current Version Status Router RBR50 RBR50 V2.3.5.34 No new firmware version available. Satellite RBS50 Satellite1 V2.3.5.34 No new firmware version available. Satellite RBS50 Satellite2 V2.3.5.34 No new firmware version available. The Android Orbi App also shows no updates are available. Odd that only the iOS App would be offering this v2.5.1.8 release. I have the RBR50v1 with the USB port, so maybe only the RBR50v2 (without the USB port) is seeing this update?

v2.3.5.30 on RBR50v1 and no updates shown here, either on the iOS app or web interface.
My RBR50 and RBS50 autoupdated to 2.5.1.8.
This is the first time my Orbi units have ever updated by themselves without intervention.
The RBS40V, RBS50Y, and RBS40 did not autoupdate to anything newer, and stayed on their 2.3 variants.
