I recently updated the firmware as suggested by the GUI and phone app to 2.5.1.16. I was previously on the rock solid, 2.3.5.30. I treid 2.5.1.8 in the past and all of my attached devices failed to show up so I "downgraded" back. I read some posts about the new firmware 2.5.1.16 for the router and satellites. Everything I read seems to show it was an improvement and esp for the satellites.
Today I did the upgrade and I have the same issue. Nothing shows up properly under the attached devices. When I go to look at firmware updates, all of the devices are beign shown as current so that means they are connected. I can even see an IP address for each satellite in the phone app. Please see the attachements as to why this makes no sence.
Do I really have to do a factory reset after updating the firmware to have the attached devices and backhaul status to be correct?
2nd pic which shows disconnect but is in direct conflict of the 1st attached pic. If they weren't connected, it wouldn't be able to check the firmware version.
I have done the same in the past with no luck. I just use Voxel's firmware and I haven't had an issue since. Google it.
I's funny you mention 3rd party firmware, such as Voxel.
Every time we install a Netgear router, we trash their firmware and install DD-WRT. The router is faster, less issues and always has the features one would want.
With that said, my RBK53 system is on 2.5.1.16, and am experiencing no issues whatsoever. Currenty it is not ahowing an update.
