When you click on upload message comes back that I need a .img file. I am working with Windows 10 on a 64 bit platform. Tried changing the file extension to .img, but got a message back that it was now the wrong file.
I know this may be a dumb question, but did you unzip the zip file?
Was able to resolve problem by unplugging the satellite that was failing on the update. The online update worked for the remaining satellite. Plugged the 2nd satellite back in but much closer to the router (10 feet). The update was successful as well. Moved the 2nd satellite back to original location. All is well. I still don't understand the .chk file provided in the download rather than an .img file.
