I have the same issue. I've attempted to apply the firmware version update using 3 different methods and the result is an unresponsive router until I restart. The upgrade never completes. Can someone explain how a reset to factor defaults will allow the new fw version to install properly or if it does fix the core problem at all? A router that does not accept security updates is, in my opinion inherently insecure and becoming more insecure. Does this process clear a storage or memory issue that then allows the latest update to install properly? What does this mean for future updates? I like the router but concerning that it could possibly be underequipped to keep up with secure firmware udpates when I have owned it for less than 2 years.

It might help if you tell us which router model you have?
- bpaulsenFeb 07, 2024AspirantApologies. It's odd UX that you can designate your product in an associated products field for the posts but that information is not displayed to the community. But I am here for answers regarding my firewall and not to complain about the functionality of the forum. I have a RAX45.
