Updating Firmware XR300
Hello, I came across a firmware update on the website for the xr300 which my xr300 doesnt pick up when i try to update it with the nighthawk app. So i tried using the manual to manually update the firmware but apperentaly that is impossible to do on the xr300. It says to go to - Settings > Administration > Firmware Update, but this is nowhere to be found on my xr300 settings. I tried changing the language from dutch to english to check if this might solve it but even then i am getting a error message, the router reboots and does not let me change the language. Can somebody help me.

- You'll need to access the interface using a PC to go to Settings > Administration > Firmware update, then you can perform an update. What error message do you get when trying to change the language?
- Yeah, within the administration part firmware update is not there. But i tried to do a full system reset and now the router is stuck at checking for updates screen for more then an hour. Anything i can do about this ?
- Refresh the page, then skip the update part and you should be able to get to the interface. Then can you take a screenshot of the Settings page on the Administration section please
