    You can manually update to v36 by downloading the RBS and RBR FW files from NG download site. Using a wired PC and Web browser, send the RBS FW file first, then update the RBR lastly. 

     

    Also if the system is working well, you don't have to update FW. 

     

    The Orbi App or Web page may not reflect new FW as it may not be posted to the Update servers as of yet.
