Orbo update file faulty RBS40V-V2.3.0.10
I've downloaded the latest update this morning but after unzipping the file contained in the zip it is not the correct format, so the update will fail whichever method you choose auto or manual.

Try changing the name from *.chk to *.img.

I suggest that because it works and is a well known move in the Orbi bit of this community.
You might like to visit that zone, rather than trying to get help in the area for Netgear General WiFi Routers (Non-Nighthawk). There may not be that many experienced Orbi users here.
The "wrong name" issue has already appeared there.

That one came from FURRYe38 who has experience with Orbi and Netgear.
There is at least one satisfied customer.

I wonder if a moderator could move it to the correct community? I did use winwar to unzip the file to leave me with the update file.

Moderator notified.
If the discussion I linked to does not fix it, then you could just start a new conversation with details of what you have done and where it fails.
That is more likely to catch the idea of one of the Orbi moderators than something here or tacked on to the end of an ongoing discussion.
Is see that the on-line process does not show up RBS40V-V2.3.0.10. It tells me that V2.3.0.8 is the latest.
Not sure that I need improved voice recognition for Spanish and Japanese. And I haven't see "the issue where the music might stop unexpectedly".

Update to RBS40V-V2.3.0.10 worked fine here.
No need to mess around with the file at all.
It is, of course, a painfully slow process.

Done. Now you are in with the people who know their stuff when it comes to Orbi kit.
Here's another one:
