RBR850 - no access to interface
I have an RBR850 WiFi 6 with one satellite. I have a lot of smart home devices on the nework (over 80) As of a few days ago, I cannot access the router interface via iPhone app nor can I access ...
Just FYI all,
Since I did a manual update of the firmware, the interface has been stable for over a week now!
Firmware:V3.2.16.22_1.4.9
Good News, did you factory reset after the update or just continue?

No factory reset or changing reserved IPs etc. It was just a manual update to that firmware which was available on Netgear website but was not available when router checked for new firmware.
Ok, thanks for letting us know.
I'll recommend for users who update manually to new FW, after the RBS and RBR have been updated. Power OFF all units for 30 seconds then power back ON the RBR first, then RBS. Should be good after that.

I do that everytime I do a "Dirty Install" or any install. The last being the 3.2.16.22_1.4.9 manually. Maybe even longer since the time it takes me to "tour" the RBR and RBSs takes a bit of time. Also leaving the assignment of WiFi credentials until all is back up and running. Then another Power Cycle, but still no RBR access after the last Power Cycle last week only garnered couple of days of connectivity. Seems to be the norm for me.
