    Thanks for the reply - can you point me to a link to get the zip file?  Also is the zip file for the same firmware as well as the gui language update or just the gui language update?

    I assumed that you meant the firmware update zip file. I downloaded it and upgraded my router but there is still a language update.

        When NG released the update, the automatic update process was hosed, my guess from being overloaded with update request, SO I downloaded from support and manually updated without a problem.

         

        I would revert to a earlier version and try again. If the automatic is slow again, download from support. extract and manually update. Make no mistake these last several updates require a factory default so get over it.
