Orbi RBR50 Router Firmware Version V2.7.2.102
A new Router Firmware Version V2.7.2.102 installed automatically during the night. So far so good!

RBS50 is running V2.7.1.60 same as what the RBR50 was on before the forced firmware update to V2.7.2.10

In my iOS Orbi app it shows it connected and functioning. Also on the Firmware Update page of the web interface it keeps trying to update the RBS50 but fails.

RBK50 online in router mode with v102 loaded behind a CM1200 cable modem:
RBS50 ethernet connected behind 3 NG GS series non managed switches. Small ARP storm seen when RBS was syncing then it stopped. Network is stable and working.

For users with a 50 series and a RBS20, be sure to upate the RBS20s FW. Mine connected via ethernet but the radios were disabled, so I updated the RBS FW since it was a few behind. Up and running now:

Wired.
Ever since NG released v4 and follow on versions, these ARP storms are now present after any RBS are connected via ethernet behind a switch to the RBR. Something not seen on v16. Though up to before v102, the ARP storm didn't seem to stop, now after about a minute or two, the storm stops and the network settles in and right now, still working just fine with the two RBS ethernet conneted.
