RBR750/RBS750 Firmware Question

Hi All,

 

Have the RBR750/RBS750 system. The Orbi app does not work on my Android phone, just a white screen. Support stated my firmware is not up to date on my systems, so probably that is why app is failing to connect. I've been doing the firmware check for months now and it comes up with no update available. 

 

Currently the devices are at v4.6.11.1. Supported pointed me to the page to manually download and install the latest version 7.2.8.5.

 

The question, will I have any issues jumping from where I am now to the latest version? Or do I incremental upgrades starting from the current version which would be 10 updates? 

 

Appriciate the assistance. 

 

Thanks!

    I believe you can just go directly to the latest firmware.  It is absolutely critical that the satellite(s) are updated before the router.
