Unknown Error 109 during Firmware Update
Current Firmware: 1.0.9.26_10.2.31

Hi akak and jcd1126,
I tested it in our laboratory and was not able to reproduce the error. I have successfully updated the firmware from 1.0.9.26_10.2.31 to 1.0.9.28_10.2.32. I updated it using the check button in the router web interface and also tried the manual update. The browser I used is Chrome.
How did you update the firmware?
I suggest to manually update the firmware. Here's the reference link:
There is also Hot Fix firmware available. I recommend to update the firmware to the latest version.

Experiencing the same error 109 here trying to update my R7000 .
Rebooting the router allowed the update to go through without error.
FYI, error 10 in Linux is :

Probably some kind of leak going on in the R7000 OS causing the issue.
Yes, I have experience same thing. Reboot it first then run the update work. You wonder if NetGear would have done some good QA job testing on this.
I got the same error using the browser interface (both Firefox and Chrome). I installed Genie, which I had not reinstalled after a previous OS reset, and told it to do the update. It succeeded. Wasn't necessary to reboot the router.
