I'm afraid that "will NOT upgrade" doesn't help when trying to debug your problem.
What are you doing and what happens when you try?
I've been lucky as my RAX80 has been flawless behind an CM1000 modem. Now since the .88 update, I've has constant internet drops. I guess it's my turn now. Doing a factory reset is the only way to get the internet back but it doesn't last long.
When the router tries to perform self update, it states no new firmwares available.
When I try to manually do it, it says the FW file is wrong and will not update.
This router is garbage.

This is usually a sign that someone is trying to apply firmware for a different device, that they have got a corrupt download file, or they are trying to upload the whole zipped download rather than the unpacked firmware bit.
Also using it as a network storage host is basically imposisble.
Multiple drive sizes with different fomratting, all lose connection and the router reboots.
Update done, every thing works, include my NAS.
