GS105Ev2 firmwareupdate fails

Hi,   updated from 1.x till 1.4.0.9 worked well. I'm very cautious so i didn't make large steps, only one after another. But the last one fpr 1.5.0.4 does not work.   I strictly followed this up...

    Hi,

     

    Just bought the GS105Ev2 and ended up here after looking how to update firmware and bootloader too as it seems to be tricky.

    I ended up finding that the latest firmware package available on Netgear website (1.5.0.5) doesn't contain bootloader update nor allows to update it. But firmware package 1.5.0.4 does !

     

    So to simply update firmware and bootloader to the latest versions:

    - Update firmware with 1.5.0.4 with ProSafe Plus / reboot

    - Connect to GS105Ev2 web gui, it will ask to update booloader, provide the bootloader update requested and contained in the package, it's GS105PE_loader_V1.4.0.5-VB.bin in my case / reboot

    - Update firmware with 1.5.0.5 with ProSafe Plus or web gui / reboot

     

    Et voilà
