RBK40 Was replaced by Orbi - Firmware is OLDER!
My RBK40 router was about 5 months old, and failed. Orbi replaced it, and the new RBK40 they sent is working well. BUT, the new one - again, that Orbi sent - has OLDER firmware, and no longer support...
Thanks for the GREAT instructions. Seriously. It did not work, but I think the process gave me more info! I think my problem may be that I added another satellite to the system - RBW30. The attached screenshot shows that the satellite I did have has V2.1.2.18 (which is the latest), but the RBW30 has V2.0.1.2. Updating the firmware on the RBW30 fails. Could this - the wrong device - be my problem? P.S. FWIW, the RBW30 is actually the third satellite I have - I have two RBS40s in addition to the router, and the RBW30 is my fourth device total. I believe this system can have four total devices? Thanks again!
One more, if you don't mind. Check out the attached screenshot. Shows my router as V2.0.0.56, with not update available.... I'm flummoxed...
