Has RBR40 stopped receiving firmware updates?
I'm asking this because of the FunJSQ vulnerability. Is this router vulnerable to this?
Or to any other currently known vulnerabilities'?

Re: Has RBR40 stopped receiving firmware updates?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?
Use can check here in the forums for FW updates:
Or Netgears download page:
https://www.netgear.com/support/
FW can be manually downloaded to a Orbi system if nothing appears on the RBRs web page or Orbi app.
If you are a NETGEAR customer with a security-related support concern, you can contact NETGEAR customer support at techsupport.security@netgear.com.
For all other issues, visit http://www.netgear.com/about/security

Many of the original consumer Orbi models appear on Netgear's list of End of Life products:

Specifically:
As it has been more than one year since the last firmware release, one might conclude that there will be no more firmware releases for these products.
This article specifically mentions a fix being released for several models (but omits the the RBR40):
This article published on Sept 13 also omits the RBR40, but claims that a fix has been released for the RBR50 (v2.7.4.26). However this firmware version does not appear on the Netgear support site. Perhaps "released" is a euphemism for "we're working on it."
