Hello angularone
The firmware is updated automatically.

- I understand that in orbi mode. But since I set it up under the att U-verse as an Ssdi guest it does not show under orbi app. So how does one keep firmware updated?
As said already, the Orbi updates firmware automatically, with no user input required. This, of course, requires Orbi to be on a network with Internet access. I have no idea what an "Ssdi guest" is, but If you have Orbi on a closed network with no Internet access, which is unlikely, then you will need to manually update the firmware by downloading the ffirmware from Netgear onto a PC, logging into Orbi with a web browser, and uploading the file from your PC.
