Hello @ninja660 ,

It seems likely that your network isn't successfully connecting to the cloud, preventing it from automatically detecting the new firmware. This is the case with both your Archer BE9300 and the new router.

You could try changing the router's DNS to: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4.

  @WKMAN I don't have v2.6 only the 1.6 - strangely too, since I have moved to another brand router it hasn't picked up that there was a new firmware update for it either.= but it was manually installed and that router is happy again.
