D6400 firmware upgrades fails

Have tried upgrading to D6400-V1.0.0.88_1.0.88.chk via the router and via my mac from a dowloaded file. It seems to download but the little blue picture keeps on turning and it never finishes. Works OK when I exit the router but its still on V1.0.0.86

Why does it not go through. Have tried several times

       That tells me nothing.  What, exactly, did you do?

     

    > [...] D6400-V1.0.0.88_1.0.88.chk [...]

     

       Presumably, if you got that file, then you also got the Release Notes
    file, which points to the D6400 User Manual.  Look for "Manually Upload
    New Firmware and Update the Modem Router"?
