You can download the latest firmware version for the SXR80/SXS80 here.
In our web portal, it says Chat Support, Phone Support, Online Case Entitlement... all EXPIRED. This was purchased in May or June.
The SXR80/SXS80 comes with a 90-day complimentary technical support upon date of purchase from a NETGEAR Authorized Seller. This is indicated on page 3 of the SXR80/SXS80 data sheet here.

You can also purchase extended phone tech support. You call the same number to purchase. Of choices choose business or enterprise systems or you will get bounced around before getting to the correct person.
Regardless of tech support status, be sure your Insight app is up to date when you try updating firmware. Although you can force firmware update via a browser web page, other changes made that way will not stay - they are overridden by insight cloud when insight is next accessed.
