Problem Updating FIrmware RBR20
I got an email today from Netgear that indicates that there is a firmware update for my router to V2.3.5.36. I currently have V2.3.5.26. When i go to update the router says there is no update. ...
Just for grins I tried it againj today. The update worked fine -- I'm updated to version .30
I suspect that there was something wrong with the versioning at Netgear, but really I do not care as it seems to be resolved.
You can manually download v36 from here:
https://www.netgear.com/support/product/RBK20.aspx#download
If you do, use a wired PC, web browser, IE11 or FF, and unpack the .zip files. Update the RBS first then RBR lastly.
If your systems are working with out any problems, you can keep whats loaded. "if it works, don't fix it!"
That is not the problem. I was able to download the update, but when I tried to implement the 'Manual Update' the software would not allow me to get past the next username/password. It was the correct name/password, same as that that I logged in with.
Reboot the RBR. Clear all browser caches. Exit then relaunch the browser. Try a different browser. After the RBR has rebooted, log in and go into immeditally to try to update the FW using the web browser on your wired PC.
