WN3000RPv2 Firmaware image missing

Hi,

I think I may have the same problem than Baggy77, except my current firmware is older (V1.0.0.26). It is extremelly frustrating!

The appliance looks physically like a v3, but it is written v2 behind, and it says v2 on the web interface. It also says v2 in MyNETGEAR where I registered it with its SN. I downloaded every firmware available for the v2, but they all have a .chk extension, and the web interface of my appliance says it wants a .img extension when I try to upload it. The v3 uses .img extensions, so I tried to upload v3 firmwares: all of them leads me to an error message saying that the firmware is incorrect and that I should check if it is the right version. So here I'm stuck with a non working appliance that I cannot upgrade!
