Router update
There is a firmware update to my router but when I try to install the update through the app on my phone, I keep getting error messages. Can anyone help?

what router do you have?
have you tried updating through the browser instead of the app?
or tried a manual firmware update?There's a support site with access to manuals, firmware, install guides, etc.
Go to https://www.netgear.com/support/
Type in your model number and from there it'll take you to the above.
Its a great resource to start with. - michaelkenwardGuru - Experienced User
