Rbr50v2 Conversion

[Tonot1]

Latest firmware can be found on Github: https://github.com/Ton-O/RBR50V2_TO_RBS50/releases
Just click on the version you need below:
- V2.7.5.6 for Netgear's firmware
- V9.2.5.2.39SF-HW for Voxel's firmware.
Then download the associated asset (BIN-file) that shows up.

As mentioned many times in this thread: you can simply update through GUI to these firmwares when you are on stock Netgear firmware; if you're already on Voxel, you need to use the TFTP-approach.

As always a warning:
Use these releases at your own risk; they work well in my situation, but I cannot guarantee it will work your situation. The risk of bricking your device is always there, don't blame me!!!

Tonot1, thank you so much adding this latest firmware version for us, hopefully this will sort my RBR50 out again and I can resuse it as a satellite, very much appreciated.

I'm not sure about the process again, I've downloaded your file which is a bin file but to upload it manually via the web interface I think it needs to be an image file or have I missed something again.

Sorry if I'm being stupid

 

[Tonot1]

No, you're not stupid...
Unless the GUI checks the extension, it should work.

This is what I get when I try to upload it, sorry.

 

[Tonot1]

No problem,I renamed the file to *.img; it's on github .Note that this is the same file, just with another name (you can rename it yourself, or download the renamed one).
Sorry, I've been doing the updates most of the time with tftp, not through the GUI; otherwise I would have noticed this myself.
