RBR50V2. firmware update issues

Ok after a long tedious process I am updated to version 2.7.2.102 !!

First.  The Orbi is retail and in Router mode

I use Apple and either a Chrome and/or Safari browser. 

problem #1  a brainfart

When I downloaded the firmware update I did not realize a separate file was embedded in the  release notes. One for the router and one for the satellite.  My bad

problem #2

Once I knew that i manually updated (satellite, satellite, router) twice. One for each or the previous updates until I was current with 2.1.7.60. a loooong process!  Then the system notified me the latest update was available and I was able to online update it.  Now I'm current.

Of course this made the system a little unstable. Satellites dropping in and out and several items yet to be discovered.  I am confident with a little time it will settle and be fine.

 One thing I did notice was for a short time the Satellites were daisy chaining back to the router. Is that a new feature?  In the past each satellite always connected to the router direct.

Never satellite-to-satellite-to-router. 

Thanks for the help!
