Hi, I'm new to the community and also recently installed my Orbi router and 3 satellites.
Is there a reason why this firmware update is not detected by the App or browser interface and has to be done manually? In the support page it indicates that is preferable to upgrade though the automatic function rather than the manual one to avoid compatibility issues. I currently have version V3.2.16.22 which was the last available update available within the app and browser interface.
Thanks for your advise on this matter.

NG hasn't put this up on there auto update servers yet is all. You can manually download the FW files and manually install them using a wired PC and web broswer would be preferred. Do not use Orbi app. RBS first, then RBR lastly if you wish too:
