I recommend if you see a FW update, ether use the MR and MS web pages to update or manually update the MS and MR using FW files.
There is a more recent version of FW as well:
Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

FW updates should be applied to the MS first, the the MR lastly.
After units are updated and back online, a pull power OFF of the MS and MR should be performed for 1 minute or longer, then back ON with the MR then MS units. They should re-connect with out any issues.

Satellites (2) both have red lights. Satellites show that latest FW (122) is uploaded, but Router shows FW (166) and no updates available. Both satellites show offline.
