This firmware file is incorrect!

Whether I ask the router to download the firmware itself or if I upload the correct firmware file, I get the same "This firmware file is incorrect!" message. I'm currently on V1.0.1.88 and trying to get to V1.0.1.96.

 

What's the next best step?

    I guess you'll have to live with it or relace it.

     

    The WNR2200 has been EOL'ed. There is currently no replacement product.

    when you downloaded file did you extract it before trying to use it?  6,017KB is what I got after extracting it.

      Yes, i unzipped it and pointed it at the .img file when it asks for the firmware file.
