When I followed the instructions you linked, it did do a full reboot but didn’t upgrade the firmware.- JeffMcLJan 24, 2021Guide
The message I get is:
Unable to download GUI language file from Netgear server
I know how to manually update the router and it "goes through the motions" and reboots but does not actually update the firmware.

This is rediculas. Is there NO solution to this issue that a lot of people seem to have??? I does not matter if you attempt to upgrade through "automatically" or manually.
