What browser are you using? Safari? Try FireFox.

 

Be sure you have the right RBS50 FW .img file. 

Try a factory reset on the RBS, wait for the connection to be ready, then try to send the img file. I was able to do this on a Windows PC. 

 

Do any of these work? 

RBS50 (Orbi Satellite) Firmware Version 1.10.1.2
RBS50 (Orbi Satellite) Firmware Version 1.9.1.12
RBS50 (Orbi Satellite) Firmware Version 1.8.0.6
RBS50 (Orbi Satellite) Firmware Version 1.5.0.12
RBS50 (Orbi Satellite) Firmware Version 1.4.0.34
