The .chk file is for the Orbi system, Windows or Mac doesn't matter and you don't open the .chk file. You send it to the RBS first the RBR lasty using the manual update process linked in the first post using a web browser connected to the RBS or RBRs FW update web page.

I have the RBR850 and RBS850 and am having the constant disconnect issue. I would like to try this firmware but that link looks to be only a .chk Windows file. Is there a version I can use for Mac?

Thank you! I've installed 4.6.7.5 and power cycled my RBR850 and 2 RBS850. I've noticed one dropout in the first five minutes from 1 satellite. I'll give it some more time before doing a factory reset. Fingers crossed.

So I've just noticed at least one more random disconnect while sitting near one of the satellites. Would you recommend a factory reset on the RBR850 and both RBS850? I'm really getting frustrated with almost $1000 worth of routers and constant drops.
- meeper34Jan 15, 2022AspirantI installed the firmware and I think the issue is actually worse now. I’m resetting my router and satellites today as a last resort. I’m mad as well. I spent over 1000 on these, and they were amazing until I’m assuming an unwanted firmware patch was forced on us.
