can't update firmware on FVS318Gv2
Been having some connectivity issues with my FVS318Gv2 so started troubleshooting by first upgrading firmware. I'm at version 4.3.3-8 and I downloaded version 4.3.5-3, tried installing through my adm...
NG finally sent an identical replacement unit (overnighted free of charge--much appreciated).
I connected my laptop to it, fire up a browser, and it updated the firmware to the latest version without a hiccup.
Have it in service now and so far so good.
Thanks.

Thanks for your follow-up. Just waiting for a good opportunity to do this, can't afford the downtime right now.
Also, if I try the upgrade and end up bricking my router, that would be very bad because it would effectively shut down my business.
Worst case scenario, if that happened, would Netgear overnight a new router to me under warranty? Mine is less than 2 years old.
