Hi.
The firmware is still available so not sure as to why you can't download it. Click this link, enter XR500 into the search box and the download link is on the right.

I get this https://kb.netgear.com/app/error//error_id/1 when trying to download or even trying to look at release notes, try the release notes and see what it brings up for you, it may be a DNS issue with my ISP possibly.

- BIG_DOGMar 09, 2018LuminaryThat’s very strange as when i saw this post this morning i clicked the firmware link n downloaded the firmware zip file!!!

Hopefully they're just getting ready to release the new firmware that was mentioned a couple of weeks ago.

Yes I’m on that version so will keep on it and await the update release if that happens. Thanks for the info. Is there a reason it was pulled? Just curious. More information about firmware that has been removed would be helpful for people who are not sure what is going on I have to say, because some will be on the previous version and some of us will be on the current version pulled version and no one really knows what’s happening at this time.
- Netduma-FraserMar 09, 2018NetDuma PartnerThere is nothing wrong with the firmware but we're getting a new one out very soon, not many people had upgraded so we could pull it easily.
