RBR satelite firmware upgrade from V4.6.5.14 to 4.6.3.6
It seems that there is a firmware upgrade from 4.6.5.14 to 4.3.16 to my Orbi RBR750 satelite
However that does not work, and the version bump is the wrong way ... I would expect V4.6.5.14 to be newer than the "upgrade" V4.6.3.16.
What should I do ..?

Where are you seeing this FW update?
Current version of released FW is v.11:
- HusfeldtAspirant
It is for the satellite only - and shown both in the app and on the web-admin solution.
The "main" router is on the correct and newest version.
However - I searched and found the new version RBS firmware and uploaded that manually - and this seemed to work - so problem is solved.. though still the behavior was strange.
Ya seen odd problems with RBS not getting updated FIRST by the Auto update system. So the RBS needs to be updated manually, hopefully it was still synced and it's web page accessible. RBS need to be updated before the RBR gets updated.
Keep in mind now that with v.11, NG finally gave users control over Auto Updates so you can disable it now. If you do, and choose to want the update the system, you'll need to do this manually. Something I prefer doing.
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.
