RBS750 Satellite Flashing White - Need to manually update firmware
System: (1) RBR750 (2) RBS750's. Both the RBR and the other RBS 4.6.5.14. The RBS in question had blank firmware fields in the app. My RBS750 Satelittle has been blinking white for some time now....

Thank you for the reply. Just be clear:
1. Download latest FW zip file.
2. Turn off Wifi on laptop and connect ethernet cable to back of RBS in question.
3. Press and hold the reset button with a paperclip until power LED blinks amber. (HOW LONG TO PRESS AND HOLD)?
4. Wait 5 minutes.
5. Try and log into 192.168.1.250 via google chrome.
6. Login vs admin and password
7. Use FW update webpage to extract FW zip file.

3. Press and hold the reset button with a paperclip until power LED blinks amber. (HOW LONG TO PRESS AND HOLD)? 15 seconds. You might turn OFF the RBR to make sure the RBS doesnt' try to reconnect to the RBR.
4. Wait 5 minutes.

7. Use FW update webpage to extract FW zip file. No, use the FW udpate page to send the .chk file to the RBS.
