I am trying to update the firmware of my Orbi via the Orbi app. It tells me that I have a firmware update and I click the button to update it. It goes through all the steps of checking new firmware, downloading, installing, rebooting and then verifying that I am connected and then it tells me its has been successfull. I have done this 6 times now and its not truly updating the firmware. After multiple attempts to update the firmware, everytime I check to see if its truly been updated the version still states the old 2.3.5.30 version. Are there any fixes for this issue?
Thanks!
IF your system is working, leave it alone. No need to manually perform a FW update.
