RBR850 (RBK850) not showing that there are updates when there are on the website
Hi my RBR850 router and one satellite does not show any firmware updates available but when i checked the download site there are. Does anyone know why updates are not being shown?

Netgear has not published any documentation about how firmware updates are supposed to work. What we observe on the Community Forum is a constant stream of comments from users that their Netgear router claims "no new firmware", but that there IS newer firmware on the support web site. This pretty much leaves the decision up to the customer
