         I trust that you understand why saying that you have a problem with
      "a chk file" might not lead to a suggestion that you extract the
      contents of an unmentioned zip archive.

    • Which firmware is this?

       

      Netgear has done a rapid update for the D6400. Just days after upgrading mine I found a new version, V1.0.0.70.

       

      66 landed on 14 December, 70 arrived 10 days later!

       

      66 must have been a dud.

       

      PS Thanks for passing on the solution. This is a common issue, so your Solved answer might help someone in the same boat who turns up here seeking help.
