> Product: DGN2200 v3
Are you sure? Firmware kits for a DGN2200v3, as you've seen, seem to
contain a ".img" file, not a ".chk" file. A firmware image for a
DGN2200[v1] or DGN2200v4, for example, would be a ".chk" file.
> Firmware Version V1.0.0.57_7.0.57
That looks (to me) like firmware for a DGN2200[v1], not for a
DGN2200v3 or DGN2200v4.
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Downloads. (For older versions, under Firmware and Software
Downloads, look for "View Previous Versions".) Find the kit(s).
Download the kit(s) you want. Read the "Release Notes" file for
instructions. (In the User Manual, look for "firmware", and,
especially, for a topic like "Manually Upload Firmware to the Router".)
Regarding "DGN2200v3", what does the "Model" field on product label
say? What does the management web site say?
> Hardware Version DGN2200
If that's what the management web site says, then that would suggest
that you have a DGN2200[v1]. You might have a case or label for a
DGN2200v3.
You might ponder the firmware kits which are available for the
various hardware variants, to see what agrees best with what you have.

Sure there is, but it helps if you can identify the product
correctly.
(Hmmm. I see that the firmware on my DGN2200v4 is out-of-date. If I
were still using it, then I might care more. At least this discussion
wasn't a total loss.)
