- May 31, 2022NG must have pushed the update to me. I can now access everything via the browser. App just spins when I put in the password in and I assume times out, but I may need to delete and reinstall. But that will be a tomorrow project.
Just excited that I got a win!

Factory reset and setup from scratch. Be sure any RBS that you have is synced.
Then manually update to v.2 on the RBS first then RBR lastly:

I manually updated. I was logging in to the admin interface via the ip address to hardcore a device ip and saw there was an update so I installed it. Then BAM! This happens
My only query remain is since I manually updated will NG autopish the fix to my device or do I need to do the 30/30/30 method?

I finally got the push. I was contacted by Netgear and gave them my serial number. I rebooted this morning after checking that it was still stuck. I noticed a lot of Armor messages coming in and I could finally see my router. What a ride. About a month.
Glad it’s over but the search has started. - FURRYe38Jun 06, 2022Guru - Experienced User
Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

I am not 100% sure if it has been posted, but has NetGear provided an OFFICIAL response to the cluster 'eff that they created? Or are they tucking their tail and riding out the support cases that came in?
