Log in to your router via desktop, advanced settings, administer, firmware. There you can push the update manually to your as satelite

Thank you. Although my 2 satellites are listed in the ADVANCED / ONLINE UPDATE tab, The two satellites show as 'waiting for connection'. On the manual tab, therefore, they are not available to select to update manually. I have my router set in AP mode, if that matters.

sound a lot like the issues that goes around with the orbi RBR20 and RBS20 series. The RBS20 disconnects all the time. Did a factory reset on all satelites and routers, set up the netwoek from scratch, then had to cableconnect the pc to the router - logged in, and hit the "update" button the instance the satelite connected. Was a nightmare.
I rolled back to the v2.3.1.44 firmware on all routers. But it is still unstable. The satelites disconnects, reconnects, disconnects etc over and over and over.

updated to .48 and now any device on the satelite is 1/4 the rated speed, I just tried a total reset of the satelite and a telnet
1. config default
2. config commit
3. reboot
same sloow speed so I will try a total factory default as soon as I can, unless someone peosts something else to try.
any device thats connects wifi to the main works great, but the satelite wifi 5G at least sucks big time
thanks

Where can you go to get v2.3.1.48 and to the update manually? Nothing happens when I click on the purple Firmware update link. This is really rediculous. WTH is wrong with Netgear?

Nowhere. You can't (yet). I had previous posts about it and everybody keeps telling me how to do it through the web interface, which I can't for various reasons. Tired of Netgear wasting my time.

Did you found a fix for the RBR20 disconnection after updating firmware to .48?
I have the same anoying problem. I had no issues with firmware .44. Now this Orbi is useless. Will a new firmware be rolled out to fix this?
