    Rbr50v2 Conversion

    @schmellic and the others contributing to the RBR50v2 conversion conversation... Can anyone tell me though, once the RBR50v2 is converted to an RBS50v2 and on Voxel firmware V9.2.5.2.28SF-HW.img from @schmellic, can future Voxel firmware be loaded via the web interface directly from Voxel...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.31SF-HW

    Both the RBR50 and RBS50. Prior to October, the firmware was updated regularly by Voxel, if not monthly. Thanks.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.31SF-HW

    I noticed there have been no updates to the Orbi firmware since October. Has the support stopped now?

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.22SF-HW

    Whilst everyone here who is using your firmware am certain greatly appreciates your diligence and regular updates, as a firmware layman it would be good to see what the benefits might be to us users. Version upgrades to particular packages is great, but what does this all mean in reality. I...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.20SF-HW

    To help others through my mistake when upgrading Voxel firmware - please see my post here. This is essentially the steps to load factory firmware when you have soft bricked your router or satellite, and the problems associated with doing that. You need to be very careful to load the correct...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.19SF-HW

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.19SF-HW

    Hi - that was very helpful. I succeeded in loading stock V2.5.2.4 back on to the RBS50 but so far unable to stop it auto updating to V2.7.3.22 which would seem to be the latest Netgear firmware. Question - Would you know what the IP address will be after loading V2.5.2.4 as 192.168.1.1 is not...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.19SF-HW

    @Voxel Thank you. I don't understand it at all. I can ping the RBS50 when plugged into my pc directly with the 192.168.1.250 address that the RBR50 reports it is. I thought I would try to load the factory firmware via TFTP. So far I am unable to get the RBS50 into the correct mode to start the...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.1.19SF-HW

    I saw that new Voxel firmware was posted today so started to upgrade my RBR50 and 2x RBS50s. I have made a mistake though through trying to load the RBR firmware to a satellite. The satellite did reject the wrong firmware bu then allowed me to select the correct one, however it has come back...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    Am very happy with the stability of the Voxel firmware. An impressive breakdown of the updates. Am curious to know how many of these affect AP mode directly as this is what I use?

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.10SF-HW

    Just updated from V9.2.5.2.9. Curiously it took 2x uploads for each satellite for them to show the update.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.6SF-HW

    Everything now on 9.2.5.2.6 and no issues. Thank you Voxel.

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.6SF-HW

    Ok, all good now. The issue was that flashing the RBS50 from 9.2.5.2.5.2 to 9.2.5.2.6 caused the IP address of the satellite to be fixed at 192.168.1.250. This would not change until I disconnected the wired back-haul connection. Over a wifi back-haul it sorted itself out when it then picked...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.6SF-HW

    Yes, LAN IP reservation for the Mac address of RBR50 each RBS50. I have no clue where the 192.168.1.250 address is coming from but this is what is reported on the connected satellite screen on the RBR50. This subnet is not in use on my network so assume it has come from either the satellite or...

    Voxel Custom firmware build for Orbi RBK50/RBK53 (RBR50, RBS50) v. 9.2.5.2.6SF-HW

    I have an issue upgrading to 9.2.5.2.6 from 9.2.5.2.5.2 I have and RBR50 and 2x RBS50s. Am running in AP mode. Everything was on 9.2.5.2.5.2. I have just upgraded one RSR50 and there is an issue with the IP address. I had fixed IPs set from my router. The satellite was 192.168.178.202 and now...
