Legit? Orbi User Manual Links to Flash Update Page?

Question

Hi everyone,&nbsp;I got a used Orbi RBK30 on eBay. Everything works great, much better than my old system. &nbsp;However, when I clicked the "orbilogin.com" link from the the user manual, which I downloaded from Netgear&nbsp;http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RBK50/Orbi_UM_EN.pdf, the link redirected me to an Adobe Flash Update page. Is this legit?&nbsp;Thaks for your input.

you can just type it into your browser. Or you can setup via the app.&nbsp;https://kb.netgear.com/31017/How-do-I-set-up-my-Orbi-router-and-satellite&nbsp;

Thanks for your fast replay and recommendation. I did manage to set up properly (should have made it clearer). I am just trying to find out if the link redirect from the official Orbi user manual is legit. I actually updated my flash plugin by going directly to Adobe, but the Orbi link still asked me to update, which I find a little suspect.

Not sure what link you meant as you linked to the manual. There's many links in there. not just 1.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The link from my post is to the user manual from Netgear. (http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RBK50/Orbi_UM_EN.pdf)&nbsp;On page 13 of teh user manual, it says..."Enter&nbsp;orbilogin.com. A login window opens."&nbsp;When I clicked "orbilogin.com" there, it redirected me to a flash update page.&nbsp;&nbsp;Strangely, if I clicked the orbilogin.com link on Page 21 of the manual, it was fine.&nbsp;"If you already set up the Internet connection, enter orbilogin.com in the address field for your browser to start the installation process."&nbsp;I was redirected to a proper login page&nbsp;Can anyone replicate this?&nbsp;
