Orbi RBR50 Firmware Update

I have downloaded the RBR50-V2.7.1.60.img firmware update and clicked on it on my mac computer. It then says the image cannot be opened?

    Do not open the FW file after it's unpacked from the .zip file. Send the file to the RBR using the RBRs manual FW update web page at 192.168.1.1 or orbilogin.com under Advanced Tab/Administration/Firmeare Update/Manual Tab:

     

    Select the Browse button and navigate out to where the .img file is at. Highlight the file then OK, then select the UPLOAD button. The file will be sent to the RBR.
