Hmmm. Is there a Zip app in the iStore?
Or find a friend with a PC/Mac that can unzip it and hand over the firmware?
Maybe this?

or
iZip - Zip Unzip Unrar Tool on the App Store
First, can you confirm that you have been able to get into the web interface for the DGN2200v4? Can you navigate to the page where it asks you for the firmware?
I'd do a dry run of that, if you haven't already, before going to the hassle of getting zip software.

That's good news.
Hope it works to plan!
Oh, and after the upgrade, if, but only if, you experience trouble you may have to "factory reset" the device.
Sorry to bring that up, but if you do see anything odd in the device's behaviour , come back and we can do some more head scratching.
