Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Enjoy.
I recommend you update manually to this version of FW on the RBS first, then RBR lastly:
Links gives information on how to manually update the system.

Hello, I have an orbi RBK753 for months on routers and satellites I had the firmware version 4.6.3.16 which let's say it worked quite well for me, before without me doing anything the RBR750 router started flashing white, like when it restarts, and when restarting completed, firmware version 4.6.5.14 has been installed automatically but only on the router. On the satellites there is always the firmware version 4.6.3.16 if I look for updates on the satellites you tell me that there is no update. I have not had the opportunity to restart the satellites, but only the router because now it is night with me and the satellites are on the two floors below. What should I do to update the satellites now? Thank you very much for who will answer me
Thank you for the answer, so I can't install version 4.6.5.14 on the satellites because it is already installed on the router? But then why did only the router update automatically? I did not want to. But is this version 4.6.8.5 final stable or a beta version? So do I still have to update the router too? Thanks for the reply.
If RBS are connected to the RBR and synced, use the RBS web page to update the RBS FW to v.5 first. Then load the RBR lastly using it's web page.
I recommend using a wired PC and web browser, MS Edge or Firefox.
v.5 is officially released FW. Not beta.
- Thank you for the answer if I can update tomorrow, after it has finished updating the two satellites and the router I have to turn them off for two minutes right? but this firmware version is much better than version 4.6.5.14? To update then only Microsoft Edge or Firefox should be used, not Google Chrome right? I thank you for the answer.
