Firmware update RBR750
Hi, I cannot update the firmware of RBR750 Orbi Router. The current version is V4.6.5.29_0.0.33 which does not have smart parental control. Moreover, automatic update does not work for the firmware...

Thanks. I downloaded the new firmware but it is .chk extension and the manual update does not consider it as the new firmware.

.chk is the file format that the RBS and RBR take. Be sure your using a web browser and selecting the .chk file thru the RBS or RBR manual FW update page. Be sure your using the RBS.chk file for the RBS and the RBR.chk file for the RBR.
Try using a different browser. MS Edge, Firefox or Opera all work.

Thanks. I have the file RBR750-V4.6.9.11_2.3.5-signed.chk. I used both Safari and Chrome and I am getting the following error:
