Orbi MR 2.1 Update 3/23/18
Our teams are still working through the issues, but I wanted to provide a quick update on OrbiOS 2.1. We usually wait to release our software until it's available across all Orbi product lines, but in a departure from our normal processes, we’re going to the release BETA software for our products in a staggered manner. The first wave to be released are only for the RBR50 and RBS50, which is used in the RBK50 and RBK53 (Costco) kits. If you have a kit that includes a different hardware product (including RBK52W, RBK40 series or RBK30 series) or a RBK50 or RBK53 with an add-on satellite (RBS40, RBW30), please hang tight. We’re not quite done with it yet, but will update this thread when it’s ready. Edit for clarity: This release supports both Circle & Ethernet backhaul Edit2: Updated with the 2nd wave of firmware for RBR40, RBS40, RBR20 and RBS20. This supports the following SKUs: RBK40, RBK43, RBK44, RBK20, RBK22, RBK23. Edit3: Updated for RBW30, to support RBK30, RBK33, RBK52W, and others We’re not yet going to push this release this for auto-firmware upgrade, and will let you know before we do. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Support. Rel Notes: Fixes issues where Internet access is not available on some devices, but available on others. Fixes an issue where Satellites get disconnected from Router Provides protection for the MDNS packet flood issue Addresses an issue where websites set to unmanaged are unreachable Multiple other connectivity & RF improvements BETA MR 2.1.3 software can be found here: RBR50: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=rFfsb14M2q RBS50: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=0UBXh9aus6 RBR40: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=dnNl6nqBSj RBS40: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=FEaFlGNCuW RBW30: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=x990UeDEdo RBR20: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=IOMUioMSLU RBS20: http://files.netgear-support.com/go/?a=d&i=S5JDrBEG2f How to do a manual firmware upgrade: https://kb.netgear.com/31573/How-do-I-manually-upgrade-firmware-on-my-Orbi-Satellite Orbi Product Team
