That's not the case for me. There was no prompt to update the firmware. I couldn't connect onto the orbi wifi and kept running into issue. I had to restart the whole process. Had to do step 1 and all the way to step 11 before the Orbi router connected. To update the firmware I was still connected to my old CL router. Once the firmware was updated, Vlan showed up in the Orbilogin.net therefore i was able to log on and change the Vlan to 201 or else nothing will work.

If firmware is not up to date. Need to connect back to CL router for wifi access to update firmware.

Seems like a lot of work using the ISP. My case with Cox, just swapped out old router and took off.
Thanks for the explanation. :smileyhappy:
