New Orbi 50 series Firmware Version 2.5.1.32 FW Release
RBR50, RBS50, RBK50, and RBK53 New Features and Enhancements: Improves the NTP sync speed and success rate Includes updates to the Terms and Conditions and adds a Privacy Policy link Bug Fix...
I have never been able to get my Orbi 50 to update by doing the check, it always says that it's up to date even when I know there is an update available... why can't Netgear get this to work? It's been like this for years and I wouldn't recommend a Netgear product because of thiss!
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?Some FW uddates don't appear on there services until later on. Sometimes there maybe a ISP or modem issue preventing the RBR to getting to the update services.
When then happens users have the ability to manually download FW files for there systems that NG makes avaialble on there download web site. Users can easily download the FW files, unpack the .zip files and apply the update to the RBS first then the RBR lastly using the RBS and RBRs web page. It's pretty easy to do using a wired PC and web browser.
