Orbi Firmware Update 2.5.0.40
Does anyone know what's in 2.5.0.40? All I can see from the software release is "Updates the https certificate" - it's described as a Hot Fix, but I would love to see a tad more detail. I had...
I installed the firmware 2.5.0.38 on my RBK50. No more available on the website.
i see that the last stable current version is now 2.3.5.34.
What do i do now?
Do I have to go back to avoid further problems ?
And if so, how we do that?
Thanks for your help.
Are you seeing problems with v38 loaded? Some users didn't see problems. Some did. Some also factory reset and setup from scratch.
If your not seeing any problems you can stay where your at and wait for the next update to come out, or install v34.
You can upgrade or downgrade by manually downloading the FW files from NG download web page and manually install the RBS FW first then the RBR. I recommend factory reset and setup from scratch to give the FW a good installation and configuration. Use a wired PC and IE11, Firefox or Opera browsers any time to do this process.

What you meant to say was most had problems with v38 and a factory reset is for lost passwords. If your not seeing any problems, then leave your network alone.
- My only problem is when i download apps updates over the air on my IPhone for example , Sonos sound stops for a while.
Sonos boost is wired to RBR50 and few Sonos speakers devices are wired as well to RBR50.
I have done all your recommendations including factory reset and setup from scratch. I had that problem on all latest firmwares .How are the Sono devices wired to the Orbi, Wired to the RBR or RBS or mixed between them? Doing any app downloads should not cause sonos to stop working if they are wired to the Orbi.
How many Sonos devices do you have?
What was last FW version that you know was working for this configuration?
What is the Mfr and model# of the ISP modem the NG router is connected too?
