I do have the rbr20, that is what is so confusing. I received the message telling me my system needed the update. I followed all of the instructions but something went wrong. The file downloaded but wont unzip. It says file is corrupted when I try to unzip it. Plus my Orbi app says it is up to date, even though the firmware version isn’t the new version.
I attempted to download the update again, but it just takes me back to the previous one I downloaded that is corrupted. That is where I got stuck, I can’t move forward and don’t know why it happened. I do want to make sure I have the latest updates , especially for security issues.

What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
Please try to download the FW files using a different browser, IE11, FF or Opera. Use a wired PC connected to the RBR. If you can get the .zip files downloaded and unpacked. Update the RBS first if you have them, then update the RBR last. You need to send the v212 first, then v32 last to the RBR.
