Thank you for your message.
I am well aware that I don't have a router, but an extender. It is connected to a LAN cable that runs from my ISP provider modem.
I have done firmware upgrades in the past and I look, check and verify on the Netgear support website first for the correct model and than have the extender verify by performing an auto-check if the firmware is exactly the same.
In the zip file there is an html document where the link refers to the same model extender.
I just wanted to know if anyone else is encountering the same problem that I had,
If nothing else works, then a factory reset and reconfigure everything by hand again.
Both my extenders are suffering from the same problem......
