Two satellites are on 7.2.6.31 one satellite is on 4.6.14.3. That's despite me hitting the update button.
You should be able to connect a computer to one of the satellite ethernet ports.
I think that if you factory reset the satellite but don't press the sync. button it should get (you might need to wait a while) an ip address of 192.168.1.250 (the reason I don't include 250 in the DHCP range).
Once connected the satellite GUI can be used to update the firmware.

Interestingly I just saw a post that says Orbi AX uses 192.168.10.250.
I've never seen that myself, but I thought you may need know about it.
