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.

So, I tried to manually update the firmware by downloading the update and using the 'Manual Update' option. However, it asks me for my password again and it does not accept the password. I have rebooted the router a few times to no avail. Any ideas out there??
Thanks, Mark D
Why do you feel the need to update???

Well, it is allegedly a security update.
But I should be able to update whenever a new update occurs.
