Orbi RBR750

I have an RBR750 and 3 satellites RBS750 in my system. The first question is I see a new firmware for my router when I go in to Administration -> firmware update . The satellites say no new firmware ...

Hello FURRYe38

Appreciate the response.

Current firmware is V4.6.9.11 for both RBR and RBS

The ONT is DZS 2424GN - fiber optic to CAT6 to the Orbi RBR 750 about 40 feet away

Home size is 4,600 > Keep in mind I have two stories and one of the RBS is outside on a protective enclosure ( weather resistant ) to provide signal outside.

Distance between the router and satellites is about 60 feet for each one.

Copy on updating the RBS first followed by RBR. My question is should there be two different downloads ? One for RBS and one for RBR ? Where can I located them? I found this on the Netgear web page RBR750 (Orbi Router) Firmware Version 4.6.14.3 but no reference to RBS ?

Yes there will be separate FW files for the RBR and RBS:

One last question, does it make difference If I am updating using a Mac using Firefox or safari ?

  Any browser on any type of computer can be used to manually update firmware.
