Orbi Setup - RBK53
I am just setting this up and am not getting a satisfactory setup. I have the router setup as an AP as I already have a router. I have two satellites setup as well. Odd thing is.. both satellites are...
Ok evidently the software was lying when it said there were no firmware updates. I found them on the website, downloaded them, upgraded all the firmware to the latest and walllaahhhhh.. everything started working like it should. I am really surprised Netgear would ship these with such outdated firmware!! Bad!!
The shipped unit may have been what was available at the time of shipping so. It's kind of hard to update FW while still in the box.
Auto update should work as well after connecting your system up. However it's recommended to keep an eye on NG support download pages for upated FW.
Glad you got yours working.
