WN3000RPv3 Urgent Firmware Update Bug
Was already using firmware V1.0.2.50, says V1.0.2.52 is available, downloaded V1.0.2.52 img, hardwired update, and your V1.0.2.52 is bugged and thinks that it’s V1.0.2.50 still... Around in catch 2...
Finally! Just updated to the new firmware version 1.0.2.52.

Well I guess I am not the only one with this firmware update problem.
Went through update at least 4 times and still get the old firmware # 1.0.2.50???????
Who knows what is in there now, but seems to still be working.
Let me startly politically incorrect. I believe that since netgear has not responded to any of our posts concerning the failure of their latest patch, that they are basically telling us to **bleep** off. Good job and great PR Netgear!! I'll never purchase another of your products again - and will black list you to anyone who asks my opinion of your crap.
Finally! Just updated to the new firmware version 1.0.2.52.

Great...the endless update loop cycle has ended, and they managed to fix it in a still broken kind of way, pretty impressive programming, and many thanks for the official response above...top tier customer support..? Keeping us in the loop...wink lol.
