RBR50/RBS50 is on V2.5.2.4 and says no new updates both via the Android app and hardwired.

 

The latest is 2.7.x.x.

Re: RBR50/RBS50 is on V2.5.2.4 and says no new updates.

Similar issue here (inasmuch as the same router, satellites and current firmware version of 2.5.2.4), but (as a non-US user) the latest firmware appears to be version 2.6.1.40, with the release article last updated October 27th, 2020 (Article ID: 000062484).

 

Surely this should have been pushed out to the Android app and Web page auto updates by now?

Being in the US I downloaded the *.60 update, updated the satelites and then the router. Update was uneventfule and so far everything is working fine. I see no performance benefit but the security updates are always welcomed.

 

There is another thread that deals with the 2.5 update. Has about 80 entries.

v4 is outdated now. Recommend to get with v40 or above.
