Cannot upgrade firmware R6300v2
Can not get this new firmwear to update. already tried to manually update and I get this error...Firmware is invalid and I know it's not. rebooted, downloaded another copy of firmware version 1.0.4.2...
Did Google search of there web site with the name of my model and the firmwear that was on it which was the CH ver. re flashed it with the same ver. they had for my model... that had my router starting up with there dd-wrt program did a firmwere upgradeon the router with there program, then I had the new firmwere from Netgear on my computer uploaded through the dd-wrt program. Once it put the new fimwear on I unpluged the router for 5 min. pluged it back in waited anouther 5 push the reset... signed on this time and netgear router page came up with the latest firmwere from them on it...so there firmwere remove dd-wrt.

Unless you have a beta version of the firmware, that's not the R6300v2 or the R6300v1.0R6300v2 | WiFi Router | NETGEAR Support
R6300v1 | WiFi Router | NETGEAR Support
Look here:
Maybe the CH thing is region specific for somewhere else, or this is a custom made version for a particular internet service provider. In which case, contact them .
Okay on the bottom it says R6300V2 it was a charter communcations router, so whats the solution?
