RBR 850 Firmware V3.2.8.5_1.2.3

If anything you might contact one of the forum moderators to see if you can gain access to the updated FW files.
Be sure to try the update via the RBRs web page. Don't use the Orbi app.

I would make contact with one of the forum moderators and see if they can get you the FW files.
