New - NetGear Orbi Firmware Version 2.3.0.32 now available...
FW 2.3.0.32 is now available on our support site :

RBR/RBS 50 Series Only.
To manually update the firmware, there is a need to ...
Manually updated RBS50 to 2.2.1.212 and everytime it came up it would crash the RBR50 to the point where I had to turn off the satellite, update the router to 2.2.1.212, and then do a factory reset on the satellite so that the pair can talk.
Once I got through that the satellite update to 2.3.0.32 followed by the main router went flawlessly.
Fingers crossed but I have a strong feeling we have finally made it past the point where we will have to do factory resets for future firmware updates. Having own this system for over a year now it's nice to see the firmware finally beginning to mature. Good work NG team.
- where I can get the V2.2.1.212? Thanks.

Key in the model number "RBK53" and it will bring up links to both the intirim 2.2.1.212 and to the final 2.3.0.32.
Through 2.2.1.210, there was a limit on the size of the firmware file that could be downloaded, and 2.3.0.32 exceeded the limit.
You must download and install 2.2.1.212 first, and then immediately install 2.3.0.32 Netgear states in the release notes that "212" is intended only to reset the image size limit and is not to be run permanently.
randy915 Note that the .212 firmware ONLY needs to be applied to the router. The satellite can be upgraded straight to .32.
