Orbi 960 Satellite cutting out and firmware not the same as router
My Orbi RBE960 system have had many issues lately. I have had problems with connecting the satellite to the router and when I first managed to connect both my satellites to the router it worked fine for just a couple of days. Now the satellites seems to cut out for 1-2 minutes several times a day. I was getting tired of this so I updated the firmware to v6.3.7.10. But after the update my second satellite wouldn’t connect. I turned the satellite off and then on again, and then it connected. But now I noticed that the satellite is not on the same firmware as the router and the other satellite (Router+satellite 1 is on v6.3.7.10 but satellite 2 is on v6.3.7.5)
My question is: what can how can I stop the satellite from cutting in and out?
And is it a problem if satellite 2 is not on the same firmware?

Manually download the RBS first and uploaded it to the RBS using the RBS web page.
Be sure that for future updates, update the RBS FIRST, then RBR lastly.
You can now disable auto updates on the Orbi system.
