- I became aware of the latest firmware while browsing this forum. Neither the app nor the web interface indicated an available update. I downloaded the files via my computer and performed a manual update via the web interface -- one satellite first, then the other, then on to the router. (RBK50) In the past, I have had updates pushed out (only once); notices both on the web and app of firmware updates available; and updates that I found were released via this forum which I've manually installed (the latter seems to be the most frequent way I have updated firmware). Through all ways, I have never had the slightest issue with downloading and installing updated firmware.

I have reverted back to V2.7.2.102 and my issue went away. I did manual updates from web gui. Has anyone else seen or noticed this? Please let me know, thanks. Netgear please look into this matter.
Login to the Orbi's web interface and set up the guest network encryption and password (page 80 of user manual).
Updated from 102 to 104 via the iOS app. All is well.
