Depending on region your in and how many NG wants to update, you may not see it immediately for AU. NG seems to push new FW out in small batches.
So you'll need to wait for it or if you want, can manually do it your self.

Please check that the automatic update feature is enabled.
(see page 77 of the User Manual: https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/RBE973S/RBE971_RBE970_UM.pdf)
Automatic update is supposed to be enabled by default, but it never hurts to double check.
In addition, the procedure to manually update firmware is explained starting on page 78.
