RAX43V2 firmware update?
I have tried to update my firmware on my RAX43V2. The router shows/says that there is a firmware update available but won't install it. I have tried manually installing from the downloaded file. ...

I have downloaded all the updates, 4.28, 6.36 and 6.38.
The chat bot says 3.18 is current for my router
The support page says 1.1.6.38, which I think is correct.
Try downloading that one,and then manually installing it from the web ui. Extract it from the zip first (don't try to install the zip).
The direct download link is here:
