You don't tell us anything about what happens when you try, so it is anybody's guess as to why it doesn't work for you.
These things are often down to user error. But who knows?

Sorry about that. Well, from what I can tell it does go through the motions of updating. Even my router reboots while it's so-called updating. However, when it's done and my router powers back up, it says update complete, but I have the same software version I had before I started ! So, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or not. I downloaded the file, and then unzipped it and uploaded it and then tried to update the new version??? Thanks for response!!
