SXR30 Satellite using backhaul over Ethernet will not auto upgrade firmware

My SXr30 and the SXS30 that is Wireless Connected Satellite will auto upgrade firmware. But my 1 Satellite connected via Ethernet Backhaul will not seem to auto upgrade. Anyone seen this ? Rega...

Hi aafa760,

Just want to follow-up if you already tried connecting the SXS30 directly to the SXR30 via Ethernet cable and if that auto-upgrades the firmware.

Also, the LAN configuration should be fine with its default settings.

Regards,

I direct connected the sat using network back haul to the router so next firmware update we will see if it connects to the router,

in the advanced admin section about firmware update it still has not connected to sat2.

I was able to login to sat 2 and update firmware manualy

UPDATE
The connection from Router to Sat is now direct no switch and the VLAN/BRIDGE setting for the two router lan ports used in the network.
set for Default1 the Wireback haul now shows connection and firmware at correct levels.

  Do you think the switch caused firmware upgrade not working?

    Not sure if so it a Netgear Switch you would expect them to test it with their own gear.,
    
    Update Two after the test I also tried wireless back haul as I expected the satellite to not connect but it connected fine via wireless.
    We will run the class rooms via wireless this week to make sure no issues,
