Circle Firmware Outdated and won’t update

I just installed the Netgear RBR50 Orbi and attempted to set up circle. I received a message that the firmware needed an update. I was prompted for my user name and password which kicked off the update but then it generated an error saying something was wrong with no specifics. Can anyone help?

What FW is currently loaded?

Manually download the FW update file from NG support site and then apply them with a wire connected PC. Update the satelite first then the router.

You need to load v2.1.4.16 to the satellite then router lastly.

Download the files from NG support site for your model Orbi:

Hi, 

 

I'm also getting the same error. I'm running v2.1.4.16 on both router and satellite for RB50 and RBS50. Anyother fixes?  

 

Thanks

I would contact NG support and ask about this...
