R6050 Won't Install Firmware Update
Brand new R6050. I'm wanting to update it to the current firmware. It says it currently has V1.0.1.10_1.0.1; however, when I look at the available versions in the Downloads section of Netgear's web site, it doesn't list this one. The newest "previous versions" is v1.0.1.7_1.0.1. The router thinks there's a new version out there and I've tried downloading to my computer and installing it and letting the router auto download and install it. Either way, it goes through the entire process and when it reboots, it still on the original version. I'm wondering if the new version is being advertised as v1.1.0.10 but is really v1.0.1.10 in the coding, so the router thinks there's a new version out there when there's not. As I mentioned earlier, v1.0.1.10 is NOT listed in the "previous versions" list.
Ok, I've gone through Netgear's uncalled for harassment and they have updated their web site to indicate the correct firmware version. I've verified that the site is now showing v1.0.1.10 as the current version and that the router itself is no longer prompting to be updated.
