Can't update SXR80 / SXS80 firmware
Just received, and am setting up my new Orbi Pro system which came with firmware version V3.2.1.102 installed. I'd like to update to the latest V3.3.0.122 firmware via the web interface but have bee...

I had the same problem. I solved it by doing it manually which was a little confusing. First you want to update the satellites and they are listed below the router. I only have one satellite, below is my screenshot. In the satellites portion of the list at the bottom select the satellite to be updated and then click the update button. When that was done I came back to this screen and did the Orbi router update which is to "Browse" for the update file and then click the "Upload" button.
It's two steps and you do the last one first. I suppose if you have multiple satelllites they would all appear and you might be able to do them all at once. The docs stress do the satellites first and they are at the bottom section. Not intuitive to go there first.

No, I was signed into the SXR and attempted to update the SXS firmware. It apperared to succeed but later still showed the original firmware. Note that the "Update Failed" message came prior to any attempts to update the firmware. I also wasn't aware I could log directly into the SXS.
My latest issue is that I can no longer stay connected to the SXR for more than a few minutes. I have to disconnect & reconnect the ethernet cable to log into it again. Cycling power didn't fix this. I suspect the hardware is bad and am consideribg returning it. I've wasted 2 days trying to get this to set up.

Hi Ray-T
Please share the debug logs from router and satellite.
You can access https://<ip address of router/satellite>/debug.htm
Click on start capture before you start the FW upgrade. Save the debug log once you hit the issue.
Send the debug logs via PM.
Thanks,
Raghu
