I had the same problem with the GUI language. I just went to the support page and downloaded the firmware Zip file. Then unzipped it to a folder on my desktop (in my case it was RAX50-V1.0.5.106_2.0.70.chk). Then went back into Administration Area and Firmware update and clicked Browse and directed it to the location of the update (RAX50-V1.0.5.106_2.0.70.chk).

However, whenever I try to update on a direct connection using my PC, I get the below mesage and am redirected back to the Internet set up tab:
"GUI language file is invalid"
How should I proceed?
Thanks,

Downloading, extracting the zip file, and then applying that to do the upgrade worked for me.

Glad you got it working. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
Enjoy. 📡
