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?

Auto updates is only used for certain major FW versions or certain time frames during the life of the project. Minor changes are not sent via AU. So if you don't see anything on the system or from the system giving notice of something new, then users can check the download site for new stuff and choose to manually install something:
