As shown in picture, I have no option to try to update firmware, any suggestions?
Clarification to issue, I have 5 USB thumb drives, unplugged all cables(except power) and with or without any of the USB drives plugged in (one is service port only rest are just USB ports), no option to update firmware is present on any menu function, no remote is present as this is a 49 inch ultrawide monitor.

Hello! Thank you for reaching out! I would recommend updating the monitor through USB to do that First please download the firmware from the following link: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/?model=N0053428. After that, you will need to format your USB to FAT32, and make sure nothing else is on the drive. After you do that make sure to extract the file named "m-RG949CCAA-1007.2[2D8D].bin" and move it to the drive. Once this is done make sure the USB is plugged into the service port on the monitor and nothing else is plugged in besides the power cord. After this please go to Menu> Support> Software Update to update the software. 

 

If this does not work I would recommend calling in directly and speaking to our remote management team. You can reach them by calling 1 (800) 726-7864 and asking for remote management.

If a new software is available but not showing up yet you can visit www.samsung.com/ support and download it to a thumb drive and do it manually I've included screen shots on how Screenshot_20230514_170314_Chrome.jpgScreenshot_20230514_170331_Chrome.jpg

What does your user manual say about updating firmware?

The position of the scroll bar in the screen shot indicates it needs to scroll down to show other options hidden off screen.
