  Netgear must have updated the 1.0.11.116 download, because this week I tried again, and this time it installed successfully. Not sure what the issue is, but clearly Netgear updated the patch. Darn I wish I had kept the old download, could've checked sized and diffed it against the new one.

       What's your next hypothesis? Mine is that you made some kind of
