Orbi RBK753S -
I have two issues with my Orbi RBK753S: I used the recommended 'online update' (as opposed to 'manual') method to successfully update my RBK753 router's firmware from V3.2.16.22 to V3.2.18.1 success...

A factory reset maybe needed as well.
I powered both satellites off for at least 30 seconds and the magenta rings finally disappeared; also devices are being routed to both satellites (not sure it is optimal yet, but will give time for things to stabilize).
But now, suddenly, the firmware version IS displayed for 'Satellite 1' (note - model number is still showing blank for that satellite), BUT it still shows the old firmware (3.2.16.22), yet says "No New Firmware Available"!!!
Argh!
I then tried to manually (again) update the firmware for that satellite but (although it is apprently able to connect to that satellite to confirm which firmware version it is on when I go to the main firmware check page on the Admin GUI), it won't connect to that satellite for the update itself:
"This site can’t be reached 192.168.x.x took too long to respond.
Try:
Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
Running Windows Network Diagnostics

Can you wire connect a PC to the RBS and access the RBS web page there?
Might give some time and check back later on this evening to see if the status changes.

Let me try that later.
In meantime, also concerned with speeds now. Can't reboot yet since wife is on a work call and I also don't like going offline for work too often either - will be joining another call shortly.
Will wait for a logical break and reboot again (and / or factory reset).
