RBR850 Firmware update No Internet
I have my RBR850 set up as an access point, when I check for firmware updates I get the status of "No Internet". I am guessing I need to open a port on my router, does anyone now what port it is or if its another issue?

No. No ports needed.
How do you have the RBR connected to the host router?
Thanks for the reply, yes its directly connected and all works fine apart from I have to do a manual firmware update

Be sure you have AP mode set up well:

I just had mine in AP mode. Manually updated it to v4 yesterday. I'm back in router mode today.
