Are you sure that is the RAX500E?
Going from V1.0.12.96 to V1.2.13.100 is out of line with the usual Netgear numbering regime.

The reference to:

suggests that this release is not yet available on the update server.
New versions usually land in a particular sequence. The first time that regular users are likely to see them is in the downloads library on the support pages for a device.
