R7960P firmware not upgrading
I have attempted multiple times to upgrade my current firmware, V1.4.1.44_1.3.5, to V1.4.1.50_1.3.10 and it fails. I have tried letting the router update itself and also downloading upgrade zip file ...
Yeah I have the same problem. it tries to upgrade and after reboot it's still on the previous firmware (V1.4.1.44_1.3.5). You wouldthink Netgear test the upgrade file before publishing it, but I guess not!!!
R7960P user here also.
I've downloaded and tried pushing R7960P-V1.4.1.50_1.3.10.chk directly on an ethernet connection.
No error during the firmware upgrade process but after a reboot the R7960P shows
Firmware Version
V1.4.1.44_1.3.5
and prompts:
A router firmware upgrade is available.
