Firmware on RBKE953 and RBKE963 the same ??
Hi, I didn't even realize that buying at Costco meant I had a slightly different model of Orbi 6E... However, I have not seen a firmware upgrade, and wondering if its the same firmware as BRKE96...
The models are very close to each other, see this other thread for the differences: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Orbi-WiFi-6-AX-and-WiFi-6E-AXE/RBKE953S-vs-RBKE963/m-p/2217200
There is a separate firmware page for the RBKE953S (different from the RBKE963 page😞 https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBKE953S.aspx#download
"The firmware was not designed to be cross compatible." So the 950 series FW differs from 960 series thus not compatible.
