what is the latest firmware version V1.8.0.6 or 1.5.0.12
hi i just got 2 orbi sets today, i actually plan to install only 1 router and 2 satellites (but satellites were not available for sale on their own in switzerland) I am confused about the firmware ...

actually found the solution
the trick is to ignore the upload option on the interface, choose update directly and upload through the pop screen that appears afterwards.
seems to work :)

in my case it is offered for the router
the firmware check doesn't work for the satellite. it says "please wait" it has been in this status for 2 hours
I am wondering if i can download it manually for the satelllite and if somebody has a link.
On the netgear website i was not able to find it

Router and 2 satelittes updated fine via automated method. Not much to offer with respect to related bug fixes within.

Same issue for me. The main unit updated and the router is stuck on the "Please wait a moment" status. And of course the website has the previous firmware.
Netgear has serious QA issues.
