Have you rebooted your router?
I couldn't update until I first rebooted. Then the update worked fine.

Mine just updated about a week ago. Worked great. Thanks for whatever you did!

Was anything else required to get the update to happen? I have factory reset and rebooted several times but still says I am on the latest firmware (I am not). I have tried with the ATT and a Verizon SIM. Getting slow speeds on both under 25mb next to a phone getting 150mb so I would like to upgrade.

It just showed up one day when I went to check for updates. I had not rebooted for a couple of weeks.

Interesting. I have had it on for 24 hours now and rebooted it a couple times. Still nothing. Do we know if there are any other factors it looks at before it starts the update? Battery level, time of day etc? I have it on external power now with no battery as a test.

I don't know the exact criteria but I would recommend battery in, charged > 80% and plugged into mains power also. I think it may only check every 24 hours too so give it a full day without clicking check as that may just update the "too soon" counter. Good luck! :)

I haven't noticed any speed improvments after the upgrade. I get about 10mb download and 20 mb upload. But it works for me.

Mine did the software upgrade without the battery installed.
