Please navigate to the link below for step-by-step instructions on how to update your RBR750/RBS750:
NOTE: Orbi app or the routers web page may not report seeing new FW updates. NG may not push this to there auto update services immediately and may activate the newer FW update being seen on there auto update services at a later time. User will have the choice to manually update if you want too.
NOTE: The Disable Auto Update feature only prevents ANY new FW from being installed if available. This does NOT prevent the system from checking NG services to see if new FW is available. If new FW is available, this will be displayed as a notification to the user on the RBRs web page only. It will be up to the user to upgrade FW or not.
A factory reset maybe needed if problems are encountered after the FW update:

- Good morning! On Friday my rbk753 system updated itself to version 4.6.9.11 before I had version 4.6.8.5 which worked fine fine. Now I have noticed that you can see the NETGEAR-guest network but I have NEVER activated it. It is also without wpa2 protection etc. I tried to connect and my phone does not connect to the guest network which I have never activated. Why do you see the NETGEAR-guest network? thanks for the replies.
Are the RBS updated as well to same version of FW?
Has a power off for 1 minute then back ON with the ISP modem and router been performed since last update?
Be sure to restart your network in this sequence:
Turn off and unplug modem.
Turn off router and computers.
Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
Turn on computers and rest of network.Has a factory reset and setup from scratch been performed since last FW update?
Posted the new 750 series FW that's released if anyone wants to give it a go:
Post your experiences there.
Thank you.
