If you have a laptop with a ethernet connection, it would be recommended to load the FW files on the laptop, then walk around with the laptop and connect directly to the back of each satellite and update them manually that way. If the the satellites are in good range and have GOOD signal, then you can attempt to update them via wireless. Update the satellites first, then update the RBR last. You have to get v212 loaded on the RBR then load v32.

If you have the satellites wire connected, daisy chain should be disabled. Also if you have them wire connected then just update them thru there wired connection. You could connect all the satellites up in the same room while you get everything updated, then place them at there remote locations.

Just suggestions for you to try.

I've got my replacement orbi's (now more expensive than when I originally got them)

Set them up (bit of a pain) but not on the latest firmware yet.

If I update to the latest firmware, will I need to move the units so they are all next to each other again?

In an earlier post it said to enable daisy chain backhaul, but I was advised to disable this and using ethernet backhaul?

I'm going to be moving one satellite to a position which will mean no longer ethernet backhaul, should this get updated prior to moving and will i still need daisy chain backhaul off?
