Orbi RBK852 4.6.3.16 broken (Solved)
This topic is only for the Netgear Orbi RBK852 / RBK853 / RBK854 / RBR850 Introduction: I bought my Netgear Orbi RBK852 last year. It's work fine and I am happy with that until they release 4.6...
- Dec 18, 2021Especially with Netgear, always do a "Pin Hole Reset" after a "New Version Update" and input the operational information by hand. NEVER use a Backup File. Especially across different versions.

If you still having warranty. Just bring the router to the repair center. In your case, the issue maybe not caused by the firmware. Maybe there are some hardware failure
