Nighthawk 7500V2 Firmware Version 1.0.3.10 Corupted File

I have tried to download firmware Version several times on different computers.  Each time I try to unzip the file I get a message that the file is cotupted.

  • I discovered my problem.  Operator error.  I did not realize that you could not extract the Zip files just by right clicking on the file in windows 10.  I was able to unzip the file when I used the proper Windows 10 procedure.

    Hi Les_House,

     

    I was able to download the file without any issue. Make sure the download is completed and check the file size. In my case the file size is 22MB.

      Each time I dowloaded the file the download was complete.  Only took a few seconds to download.  I have used Firefox, Chrome, and Opera browsers on ttwo separate Windows 10 computers.  With the same result.What was yout operating system when you did the upgrade?

      Hi Les_House,

       

      Were you able to update the firmware of the router?
