no confirm button to initiate firmware upgrade
Hello,
In an effort to update the firmware (1.0.0.60), which I have done on this computer before using Safari, I cannot see a button to allow me to confirm that I would like to do the update to version 1.0.0.94. Please see the screenshot.
I have also tried this on Google Chrome, as well as Firefox, but the button to confirm the update does not appeasr in any of them. Further to that, I have a differnet Netgear router at home and was able to update the firmware last week without any issue.
When I locate the firmware update file to download is manually, it shows what appears to be a higher version (1.0.0.104) than the one that shows when trying to use the update assistant (1.0.0.94).
Why is the confirm button not showing to allow the update to be done in the assistant?
If I have to do this manually, is the higher version (1.0.0.104) suitable considering that it is not the one offered when using the assistant?
Regards.

the R7000. One example:https://community.netgear.com/t5/x/x/m-p/2069376#M186506
Similar problems on other models would not amaze me.
