RBW30 satellite: Manual update fails
The instructions to manually update the firmware of an Orbi satellite fail at step 5: "If the browser asks you for the admin password, enter the same password you entered for the Orbi router." ...
Many Orbi WiFi5 satellites have their own web page with an option to manually update firmware. When I open a web browser to the IP address of my RBS50 satellite this web page appears:
Selecting Firmware Update allows me to manually upload the firmware that I have downloaded from Netgear and extracted from the zip file.
Does the RBW30 have a similar web page?
Yes, the RBW30 does have its own webpage, but the sign-in prompt denies the default "admin" and "password". After I reset the device, I noticed that it continued to identify itself with the custom name I had given it. Do you think this might indicate that the reset did not complete?
What is the RBW connecting too? and RBR or something different?
