Followed the directions and upgraded. Did the RBS750 units first and then the RBR750. Appears to be working well.
One important note, I did need to restart each RBS750 after the RBR750 was upgraded to re-establish connection. As each is on a UPS and mounted on the all, required a ladder.
Otherwise working fine at this time.
I didn't see the "IoT" network feature at first. You need to go into Wireless setup. You'll then see a "Wireless IoT Settings' and the ability to "enable" an IoT wireless SSID along with password.
Nice to have this feature added finally. I believe it's important to have a Trusted, IoT and Guest wireless SSID.

You can go directly to v7 from what you have loaded now. Should be able too.
RBS first then RBR lastly.Use MS Edge or Firefox browser to load the unpacked FW file.
Use the RBS web page to send the FW file to it.
All is explained inth initial post on how to load FW.
Power cycle the system after loading the FW files.
