Firmware update - Nighthawk MR60
Hello,
I have had an email from Netgear telling me there is a new firmware update for my Nighthawk MR60 however when I go into the Nighthawk app to check for updates it says there are no updates available.
Any ideas?
I’m currently on Firmware version V1.1.6.122 however I believe the new version is 124.
How do I force through this update?

It can miss updates, especially when you are a long way behind the latest. It can also be a while before updates hit the automated update servers.
The best way to check is to visit the support pages for your device and to look at the library of available updates.

Feed in your model number and look for firmware for your device.
The release notes should also tell you how to manually update the firmware.MR60 / MS60 Firmware Version 1.1.6.124 | Answer | NETGEAR Support
