RBS 50 Satellite, running different firware versions.

FWIW, RBR and RBS have to use same version of FW. So you need to either downgrade the RBS to what the RBR is using or update the RBR to what the RBS are using.

Thanks for the reply.  So, I attempted to manually perform the update.   On of the satellites updated to the latest(V2.7.2.102). and the other didn't.  FWIW, the router is running Router Firmware Version
V2.5.2.4.

Thank you!

When manually updating satellites, I have always gone directly to the satellite web interface and used the "Firmware Update" menu item.

There seems to be a general feeling that the Orbi router and satellites should be on the same firmware release (if possible).  Honestly, I have no idea what the impact of being on different firmware releases would be.  Obviously, some of the satellite models (like the RBW30 & RBS50Y) do not have matching firmware.  Why would it matter than a "50" satellite is on different firmware than the "50" router.

(To add more confusion, back when I first tested Voxel's firmware, I put the router on it and left the satellite on "stock" and everything seemed to work just fine.)

If you are comfortable with having satellites on 2.7.2.102, why not load that version on the router?
