- I became aware of the latest firmware while browsing this forum. Neither the app nor the web interface indicated an available update. I downloaded the files via my computer and performed a manual update via the web interface -- one satellite first, then the other, then on to the router. (RBK50) In the past, I have had updates pushed out (only once); notices both on the web and app of firmware updates available; and updates that I found were released via this forum which I've manually installed (the latter seems to be the most frequent way I have updated firmware). Through all ways, I have never had the slightest issue with downloading and installing updated firmware.
I am in the UK and currently on 2.6.1.40.
Interestingly. the product/download page shows both 2.7.2.104 and 2.6.1.40, but neither seems to be marked as region-specific (IIRC the previous 2.7.* was marked US-only on this page).
Moreover, 2.7.2.104 is now being shown as available on both the iOS Orbi app and the orbilogin web page. (If I update I probably can't do it until later.)
It lists only the following as affected by it:
RBR750
RBR850
RBS40V
RBS750
RBS850

yes....and the scary part is IF the user didn't dig and read that (like you did..thank you) there may have been problems.
Possible that NG is making v2.7_v104 line available for all regions if your seeing this on the Orbi app and on the RBRs web page if your in the UK. This is good info.
