Orbi satellite flashing and not pulsing white
I bought another Orbi RBS 50 to work with my existing system. I have an existing Orbi router and one satellite and wanted to extend the WiFI system in my house. As soon as I connected the new Orbi...
FW on the new satellite needs to be updated first:

Thank you for your prompt response. No problem downloading the information to update the firmware for the new satellite but as it has not connected to the router when I go to manual update it will only display the original satellite Orbi. I note that the new satellite Orbi is running on V1.12.0.18 and my system is running on V2.1.4.16 but how do I get the firmware to update when it willnot display.
You'll need to manually download the FW update files to your PC.
I have already downloaded the correct FW on my computer but how do I now transfer it to the RBS50 if I cannot download it manually via the management site?
