I have downloaded the patches and cannot get the satellite to update as I am getting prompted for a username/password before the update can be done. I've tried the username/password that I successfully used to get into the orbilogin.com page, but that does not work. I've hardwired to the router and tried to update the satellite, and get the password prompt that keeps failing. I've hardwired to the satellite, logged in successfully, set up to do the manual update and get the password prompt. I've tried the password that works to get into the orbilogin.com, and I have also tried 'password'. What am I missing? Do I need to try to update the router first (even though the instructions say to do the satellite first)?

Unplug satellite for 10-15 seconds. Plug back in. Let it re-establish a connection. Try again.

Thanks much; this resolved the problem. I cannot believe it was the "If everything else fails, try rebooting" solution.
