- 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.
Updated the router and the two satellites to this firmware last night and now anything that connects to one of the satellites is unable to connect to sites outside the home network.
Power off the satellite for 1 min. Afterwards power on and check the state in the web admin GUI.
But be patient. This can take a few minutes.
- I powered off the satellite but didn’t wait for a minute. I’ll try that later. While I was having the issue, the browser would only connect to orbilogin.com or routelogin.net but it was connecting to the satellite instead of the main router.
It's recommended to power OFF the ISP modem and entire Orbi system for 1 minute after a FW update, then back on with the modem first, then RBR, then RBS...
