Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800 MD5 Verify Error
Getting an MD5 Verify error when trying to install new firmware. I saw some old posts about this but nothing recent. Any advice appreciated.

Wooohooo! Mine worked correctly. And BTW I did NOT have to do any sort of reset, just went to the update and it worked fine from a Chrome session connected wirelessly.

Same, I'm just using the "Click here to get it" button in the GUI. Haven't tried downloading it and installing it manually yet.

I just did the manual update over a directly connected host, went through fine.

Theres a new version of FW out for the R7800.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
