I upgraded my RBR50/RBS50 today from v2.3.5.34 to v2.5.1.8. Results thus far:
Good: Device naming bug of v2.5.0.x is fixed!
Bad: https certificate is still untrusted due to it being self signed, as seen in the image below from Firefox 71.0 from https://orbilogin.com/ which is the same self-signed certificate as seen in the v2.3.5.34 and v2.5.0.40 hot fixes. Netgear , please get a certificate authority to sign the certificate. Your previous certificate that expired in August 2019 was signed by a CA.
Actually, having each device to generate their own keys and selfsigning them for the TLS certificate is more secure than having the same private key in all of the orbi devices. If the same certificate (signed by a public and trusted CA) is used for all Orbis, then the private key is the same in all of them.
