RB40 - can't update to latest firmware
Received an email from Netgear to update firmware for my RB40 to v2.3.5.34. My current firmware is V2.2.5.30. I followed the instructions exactly as indicated in the email. I am getting a message ...

There is a huge disconnect between the part of Negear that sends out those emails (I NEVER get one) and the engiineers who configure the firmware system. If the Orbi says, "No new firmware", then you are good. UNLESS you are experiencing a definite problem and are seeking new firware as a solution. In your case, I would delete the email and get on with life.

Thanks. My current firmware is actually V2.3.5.50 (had a typo in my original post).
Nevertheless, I'll do as suggested.

That "typo" kind of explains it. The exact numbers are important.
That v2.3.5.34 is older than your current V2.3.5.50.
