  • I believe you can go straight to 2.2.1.212 and then upgrade to 2.3.0.32 from there. Try it.

    To get from 1.4.0.18 you FIRST needs too apply v2.0.0.74 to the Satellite(s) FIRST, then the RBR. Once both are at v74, then you need to apply v32 to the satellites FIRST. Then use v212 to upgrade the RBR, then finally apply v32 to the RBR lastly. 


    Do a factory reset after v32 is applied and setup from scratch. 

     

    Please use a wired PC connected to the RBR. Use IE11 or FF browsers for this process.

    Download ALL FW files to your PC and unpack the .zip files.
