unable to flash router in 960 mesh system
Anyone having this issue with not being able to flash the main router? I was able to flash the satellite's as instructed first, and now no option to update main router. Any advice?

On the Manual Update page, the router update is "above the line". Browse to the location of the router firmware file and then upload it.
Satellites appear "below the line".

Download the v.31 RBR FW file to your PC, then use the manual tab and after the .zip file is unpacked, send the .chk file to the RBRs web page.

Ya, seems odd, like the RBR serial number wasn't included in the AU system but the RBS serials were.
You'll be ok to manually update the RBR by downloading the RBR file and applying it using the manual tab there.
