Powerline 500 XWN5001 firmware V0.4.1.1 CRC error
Hello, I have two XWN5001 wifi units, along with two XAV5201. One of the XWN5001 with firmware V0.4.0.7CE, and the other with V0.4.1.1CE. I guess CE identifies Europe; Spain in this case. So, I tried to upgrade 0.4.0.7 to 0.4.1.1 to have the same level in both. The problem is that if I discharge XWN5001-V0.4.1.1.zip from the donload center and try to unzip it, gives CRC error. I discharged some other firmwares just to see if there was any other problem in my system, and I unzip it without any problem. Any ideas? No one tried the same before?
The problem was that, indeed. Nothing to do with the download center. I restarted my firefox with add-ons inactive and everything was right.

I just managed to download and unzip without a problem from here:
http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/XWN5001/XWN5001-V0.4.1.1.zip
I extracted the files using both winRAR and winzip without a problem
Hope this helps

You're right. Something is wrong in my system. The url is just the same I tried before. Now, I could download and unzip the firmware in safe mode, not in normal mode. Maybe some add-on installed on Firefox 61.0.2 64bit. I will try with add-ons inactive. Thank you very much
