Documentation:
On the product page. We highly recommend updating the satellite firmware first, and then updating the router firmware.
After updating to the latest firmware, make sure to update your version of the NETGEAR Insight app for the best functionality and user experience.
Additional Firmware Update Instructions for RBS50Y(for Orbi Pro):
The Orbi Outdoor (RBS50Y) uses different firmware versions depending on which wireless system you use. As of 2.3.5.22, RBS50Y detects whether the Orbi Router is an Orbi Pro system, and if so, automatically updates to Orbi Pro-compatible firmware.
If the firmware version is showing 0.0.0.0 on RBS50Y, the system is preparing to update to the Orbi Pro-compatible firmware.
------------------------
I assume that there's a non-beta v2.6.2.200 f/w for the RBS50Y available somewhere, but neither it nor the v2.6.2.200 f/w for the SRR60 is listed in the Netgear Support pages for those devices, so I don't know where to download it.
