It can be a .chk file or .img file.

Having the same issue with the download on my imac the file shows up as "Adobe"icon am unable to get the zip file for the Satellite RBW30. The same goes for RBR40 getting the dmg file and it will not open.

In retrospect I would never buy anything from Netgear again even tho everything works great it's always the problems in trying to update. In the Orbi App says everything is "up to date while on line it shows new firmware:.

Sorry to see Apple leave the router business.

RBW30 finally updated in the app on my IOS, took a lot of attempts and the funny thing was not trying when it updated. Still not updating on the RBR40
