You don't happen to still have local v2 files do you?

Unfortunately, no. I'm just pulling from what I can get here: https://www.netgear.com/support/product/rbr850.aspx#download

During the phase people started posting seeing problems of there systems not working, I manually downgraded mine to v.16 then let it sit over night and it updated to v.2 fine and continued to work. This was before NG took down v.2.
Was curious if you had the local v.2 files you could manually update everything to v.2 and run it. Others have posted they were able to re-update everything manually and it was fine.
