My RBR50 Firmware Update web page now shows this version for router and satellite.
That seems a positive step forward.
Not for me..... yet.
Please refer to any 50 series Orbi information for this version of FW here please:
Thank you
- This firmware bricked my rbr40 router without me authorizing the update.
I think the satellites are ok but I can get the main router to respond. Holding the reset button for any combination of time lengths doesn't help and neither does tftp options. Left for vacation and came back to no internet and an expensive paperweight.try nmrpflash?

Need to press the reset button for 30 seconds then release, then it send to PUT the command and upload the FW.
I had a problem on a Windows 10 PC where this didn't work to use TFTP, so I switched to a WIndows 7 PC and the TFTP worked.

Left for vacation and came back to no internet and an expensive paperweight.nmrp does not work. I just get an error about the ethernet cable being unplugged no matter what cable i use and what port I plug into on the router. Supposedly on other documentation when doing the reset button it should be changing from green to amber. Mine stays green the whole time no matter how long or when i push the reset button. I don't get any other lights or functions from the router. The satellites seem to be alright though, they're still running and have the pink light for being disconnected from the router.
All devices were losing wireless Internet connection reporting issues with DNS names resolution.
I had no such issues after disabling Traffic Counter and NTP Daylight Update
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and Orbi system been performed since last update?
Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?

The router was powered off, modem as well.
No configuration reset were undertaken since too many settings had to be reconfigured.

That's been ordered and might be arrive tuesday to try
