WOW, this morning about 2am i decided to update my two ORBI RBS satillites first. and that went ok, till a fantom ORBI showed up in my Orbi App. i then proceeded to update the RBR750, that went well till it said it was online but it wasnt. i followed the directions according to Furrye38, (ty) and i unplugged the sats and then the router, waited 2-3 minutes then i plugged in the router and then the sats and waited........it took a few minutes and the router came online then the sats followed. it still took some time for all my devices to get back on line (about 60), which is normal thing that has been happening. then today was the test. we had some heavy thunderstorms roll in, these south florida storms alway knock out some power or damages some weak transformers to were the power goes on and off real quick. it happened 3 times in a half hour i also have the comcast modem and the RBR750 plugged into a surge and battery back up. the weakest like here is the sats, no battery-back up for them and they used to take forever to re-sync but after the upgraded firmware last night, WOW, the ORBI's came right back online which shocked me, i thought i would need to reboot the sats. but no input from me and the whole system came back online quick. i am no IT guy here but this is a major inprovement from the previous firmware that almost killed the ORBI system. thanks to all here on this forum, i have learned alot from here.

UPDATE - After the RMA
Replacement RBR750 was installed but needed NG support as it hung on the password reset during setup. Not a big deal.
It was 3.x firmware and it forced the update... SCARED... Went without a hitch. Decided to not have the satelite on the setup this time since I want to test the strength of signal since I not in a ranch style home. I am in a 4200 sq ft 2 story with the center being a large open octagon shaped living room and everything else is wraped around it. Router is on 1st floor on one side of the octagon. It works perfectly in this environment at full power with everything enabled and no sats. The upgrade or the unit itself was bad but I never got RC. If you are having issues like I did, push for a replacement.

Glad you gots omething working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
