AX3600 MK83 - CAN I CHANGE THE SSID ON SATELLITE?
Hello. This is my first post, first nighthawk, first mesh system. My wife bought me an ax3600 mk83 mess system on Ebay used. got the manuals online and while looking at the SSID'S, I noticed that ...
Thank you for your assistance.
Once you figured out from my incoherent ramblings, what I actually needed, you sent me this link: MR80 / MS80 Firmware Version 1.1.7.14 - NETGEAR Support
This was a site not visible to me at the online support. It was easier then.
The Zip files were the same: MR80-V1.1.7.14_3.1.109.zip and MS80-V1.1.7.14_3.1.109.zip I had but there was more information at: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/MK83.aspx#docs, where I could select the topic Troubleshooting and find at the top of page 2: the article labeled NETGEAR Connected Home Products FAQ. Now once in here I then found WiFi Routers and in the pull down menu found: How do I update the firmware on my NETGEAR router with a web browser?. This is where things began to click, and I could swear a new upload button appeared at the bottom! I know it didn’t, but I sure missed it 12 or 20 times.
Everything is up and working wonderfully including a guest account, wired units and wireless. We have optimum 500 Mbps / 20Mbps and Ookla is testing at 506 to 517 down and 20 plus up. I am verry happy. Thank you.
Now, were do I go to rate you 5 stars?

What do you mean "press the ms80 chk file for 14".
I ask because people, usually Mac users, click on the chk file. (For Windows that has a special meaning that has nothing to do with firmware.)
What you are supposed to do it use a web browser and the graphical user interface (GUI) to start the update process. Then you browse to where the file is and load its.
Is this what you mean by 14?
