Orbi RBR50v2 not seeing latest firmware
I have an Orbi RBR50v2 with one RBS50 satellite. Accessing the router shows that it has V2.7.4.24 installed on both devices and that there is no new firmware available. The netgear site, however, shows that the latest version is 2.7.5.4. Why isn't my Orbi seeing that there is new firmware available?

The Orbi AC series is EoL so NG, I presume removed these models from there Auto Update services.
You can manually update from now on. RBS first, the RBR lastly.
