Old Encryption Error

Hello all,

I had a family member connect today and they told me that their ASUS gave them a warning about old encryption. I’ve searched everywhere and do not see this mentioned. Any idea what’s causing this? Firmware is updated. Any help would be appreciated.
  • You should be able to update to v2.5.1.8 directly on the RBS first then RBR lastly. 

    https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBK50.aspx#download

    Download the .zip files for each RBS and RBR. Unpack the .zip file to reveal the .img files. Use IE11, Firefox or Opera web browser on a wire connected PC to send the .img files manually. 

     

    Once you get the RBS and RBR updated, factory reset both units and setup from scratch.

  • What Firmware is currently loaded? Be sepecific please...

     

    What ASUS device is this? Wireless device?

     

    What security modes are you using on your Orbi system? WPA or WPA2?

        This the only device that shows this? 

        Ensure the Asus devices firmware or software is updated as well.
