1) Download the "RBR750-V3.2.18.1-signed.chk" file from the downloads page
1a) Go to your router and click on "Advanced => Security => Block Sites"
Block these both sites
http.fw.updates1.netgear.com
updates1.netgear.com
2) Upload the file using the F12 trick , just do it for the router, and not the satellites
I rebooted the router now many times, and it is still the V3.2 version, while the satellites are still v4; This way, the router will tell you there's an update available, but since it's blocked, it won't get it;
3) I am able to get 900 up and 900 down now directly from the orbi app.
However, do the satellites still need to be brought down to v3? Thank you.
