maybe that is why my orbi took auto update, I only telneted into one, not the satelite

are these the commands to use on both?

nvram set orbi_auto_upgrade=0  <ENTER> (no spaces after set)

 

nvram set auto_check_for_upgrade=0 <ENTER> (no spaces after set)

 

nvram set auto_update=0 <ENTER> (no spaces after set)

Okay, thanks. The reason I would want to do factory reset is I had telnet'd into both boxes to turn off auto updating. If I have access to a switch, I'd rather put the devices back into their natural state.

Also if .48 in fact introduced the switch, I'd want to send a shout out to Netgear for listening to our requests as this would be be very much welcomed.

Dfran1 The satellite had fewer settings to change. To the extent I understand all the available and required settings.
It almost seems there is a setting to expose the switch for auto updates if I were to venture a guess that Netgear has hidden.
