Manually update the router firmware
You can download and manually update the firmware on your router. If a satellite is
connected to your router, you can log in to the router to manually upload the firmware
on your satellite. For more information, see Manually update satellite firmware on page
144.
WARNING:
If a satellite is connected to your router, always update the firmware on
your satellite first, and then update your router. Also, do not update the firmware on
your router and satellite at the same time, and do not update more than one Orbi device
(router or satellite) at a time. If you need to update more than one Orbi device, wait for
