Known Issues:
- After updating the router firmware, existing clients can be steered to the router because the wireless readiness in the router is faster than the wireless readiness in the satellite.
Workaround: Impacted clients can toggle their client wireless setting to reconnect to the closest station. - The device UI can be accessed via the default VLAN network only.
Workaround: Connect to a WiFi network that uses the default VLAN profile when you want to access the device UI. - When the MAC ACL default policy for Ethernet is set to Deny for a cabled satellite, WiFi clients can be blocked.
Workaround: Keep the MAC ACL policy for Ethernet connections set to Allow for a cabled satellite.

Firmware Update Instructions:
If the Orbi Pro WiFi 6 devices are connected to the Insight cloud, perform firmware updates automatically through the firmware schedule policy, or manually perform a firmware update using the Insight app or device UI.
To update Orbi Pro WiFi 6 router or satellite firmware from the device UI, follow the instructions in your product’s user manual. To find your user manual, visit https://www.netgear.com/support/, enter your model number in the search box, and click Documentation on the product page. We highly recommend updating the SXS50 satellite firmware first and then updating the SXR50 router firmware.
After updating to the latest firmware, make sure to update your version of the NETGEAR Insight app for the best functionality and user experience.
