Do you own or rent this Orbi from your ISP? If it is rented, then the FW is what they are supporting and you should only work with your ISP for support of it. If you purchased it from your ISP, then contact your them to request they unlock it so that you can update the firmware.
I have purchased this from ISP, they will not unlock it or release new FW.
