Orbi Firmware Releases | NETGEAR Communities
No mention of IPv6 issues being fixed. Just a security fix.
Please try and post any findings or results.
Good Luck.
I’m on 7.2.8.2 on my RBR850 and 9 RBS850 satellites.
The firmware check shows it “has the latest firmware”. I am really conservative about changing anything on these ORBIs as every time I do, it involves about a full day of head scratching, resetting this or that and reconnections of the 94 devices around my home.
Yes, 9 satellites works fine as long as I keep it in AP mode and let the ISP Calix router do the DHCP assignments.
These satellites are all daisy-chained with cat 6 cables connecting most of them on a large Georgia marsh lot with 3 separate buildings.
Wow, most RBS I've seen posted all working on one system.
Well, If if it works, don't fix it.
Otherwise, follow this guide to manually update FW:

Good Luck.
