- Feb 03, 2021I 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.)
