How to rebase bazzite-deck, faq instructions not working

Hi all I am trying to rebase bazzite deck to testing to try out my 9070 but when I set my set my system update channel to beta, restart, then set my os channel to beta and update it keeps asking me to download the same update over and over. My bazzite version and mesa version never change. According to the docs this should work. Am I missing a step? Thanks! https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/Updates_Rollbacks_and_Rebasing/rebase_guide/

Oddly enough rpm-ostree gets stuck on "fetching ostree chunk" if I manually try to update or rebase. Hmmm. I am stuck on a stable image from feburary 8th 2025 by the looks of it

For stable to update? I do not seem to be able to update there either.

Ah, I waited quite a few minutes on the terminal and have a 1 gig connection, the first layer was only 50mb. How long should it take max before I should call it quits? Fix was to not use ssh but to use desktop mode. I managed to update to latest stable, no rebase. Thanks all! Updates took several hours though.
