RBR50 with Firmware 2.5.1.8
I just did a manual update to 2.5.1.8 from 2.5.0.38 as I also added a 4th satelitte. Everything is connected via ethernet backhaul. Everything is running fine (ALL wifi switches and echo dots ...
So glad I came across this post. I was just about to decide to pull the trigger and go ahead with a manual update from version V2.3.5.30 to the latest 2.5.1.8 as neither in the web interface nor the orbi app has the feature 'Online Update' returned any updated firmware version info.
Recently logging into the gui for my EX3700 WiFi Range Extender showed the "New update is available". Now of course that thing seems to be behind by 9 versions of firmware releases however.
Def will wait for awhile to go ahead with the V2.3.5.30 update.
I performed the manual update to Firmware v2.5.1.8 and everything except Circle is working fine. I had issues with NETGEAR Circle losing its connection before updating to v2.5.1.8.
Seen others with Circle issues. I recommend if your needing circle to work, please post about Circle over in the Circle forum:

Good Luck.

I had issues with NETGEAR Circle losing its connection before updating to v2.5.1.8.Just did a manual update to Satellite and then Router for version 2.5.1.8. All went smooth. Things seem to be operating well. Hopefully it will stay that way!
