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...
The first issue I'm experiencing with firmware 2.5.1.8 is the inability to turn on remote management from the app. I can enable it from the web interface but the app does not allow me to enable it so I can access my Orbi remotely from the app. I did a full restore back to factory settings before applying the update.
I receive the following error:
"Some error occured while enabling/disabling remote management"
I would post about this in the Orbi app forum:

Ensure the Orbi app is up to date as well.

2.5.1.8 no longer seems to be available from the Downloads area. I get 'File not found'.
Still there and links are working:

Thanks, I took the route through Support->RBR50->Firmware and Software downloads and that doesn't work.
I'll use your link and see if it installs OK.
