c7000v2 firmware problem
My netgear nighthawk app is telling me I need to update my firmware, however my firmware is up to date on any updates it can have. Does anyone know a way around this?

there's not a way around it.
Combo devices recieve their firmware from the isp and aren't user updateable.
You can always try contacting your isp to see if they'll push an update but they rarely do. And usually they just say "contact netgear" even though netgear can't do anything about it with combo devices.

You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers about your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:
