How do I check if my Orbi is current on security?

Re: OrbI RBR50

If you run the latest firmware version, then most likely it is.

Security is in the hands of the firmware that you have installed on your RBR50 and any satellites.

 

Netgear tries to help with its on=board checks for firmware updates. Unfortunately, these are not as reliable as they could be, sometimes missing out on newer version.

 

The best guarantee is to check the support pages for your hardware.

 

Support | NETGEAR

That page will have a library of all the available versions of firmware for your device.

Compare the firmware version installed on your router with that list.

 

If you don't have the latest and need to update it, read the release notes for the new version or follow this:
