R7900 Hofix Problem

Nighthawk App doesn’t see the new Hotfix for my router.
When I go to the Netgear website it shows the new Hotfix Version.
The Nighthawk App don’t give you the option to download and install it manually.
Model: R7900|Nighthawk X6 AC3000 Tri-Band WiFi Router

You can log in through the browser to update. I'd recommend doing it hardwired through the browser. We see the most issues when people update via the app or wireless.

Use a browser. Download the firmware from the support pages for the device and manually install it.

 

If you visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.

It will also have any firmware for your device.

The manual explains the process.
