Unfortunately updated to 2.1.4.16 using app without seeing note to update manually. Now getting frequent internet drops, so want to reinstall update manually, but when I try to download it to Explorer by using link given on the support site and try to extract it, I get an error msg saying Couldn't Mount File The Disk Image is Corrupted.
First question-How do I download the correct version of 2.1.4.16
2nd question-When I do download it, do I have to reset to factory defaults and then install, or can I just re-install the new firmware.
Thanks

Why is this so difficult? Ive tried many times to download the update on Chrome and Edge and I get the same message, the file is corrupt, when I try to unzip. Why does Netgear make everything so friggin' complicated? Anyone had success with downloading/unzipping this particular model update?
Thanks,
