wifi extender ex6120 - can't download firmware update
I tried to download the latest firmware for my ex6120 extender but it gives me a "chk" file that I can't open on my Mac. Any idea how to fix this?
You don't "open" the file.
Once download and extracted, you navigate to the extenders gui (through the browser). you upload it there.
here's an article (with video) on how.
