My RBR850 and 2 of my 3 RBS850 Satellites displayed that they were auto updated to V4.6.8.2. One of my RBS850 Satellites was offline and needed to be rebooted this morning. Once it was back online, I checked the firmware and pressed update and the Router, and 3 Satellites all displayed No New Firmware Available. However, the RBR850 and two Satellites display V4.6.8.2 and one Satellite displays V4.6.7.13 and will not update to V4.6.8.2. I chatted online this morning with Netgear Support, and they are escalating my inquiry as the only firmware currently available for download on their site is V4.6.7.13. Stay tuned....
Firmware Version
V4.6.8.2_2.1.9
Can you access the one RBS web page and manually send the RBS FW file there?

After manually downloading the V4.6.8.2 update for the RBS850 using the link that appeared this afternoon, I was able to successfully update my Satellite that had failed to auto update.
