Unable to load latest firmware on RAX80

Hi,

Can't fine similar post so I'll create a new one. I checked firmware update for my RAX80 router and automatic system found a new 1.0.5.126 version (see attached)

However when I tried to use Firmware Update Assitant, it stuck on "GUI Language Update Downloading and updating the language table, please wait for approximately one minute…"  and does not proceed further. Also I'm don't see this version on RAX80 page, where 1.0.4.120 is listed as latest 

Is there a way to either install it using Update Assistan or download new firmware directly?

Thank for the suggestion but there is no new firmware file to download. 
P.S. Problem solved by restarting the router and attempt to update using Nighthawk app for Android

I would try manually updating. 

I prefer this method anyway as a manual update over a hardwired connection tends to get the least "corrupt firmware" issues.

@jelsomino Thanks for bringing this up. I encountered same issue.
Firmware update thru the android app worked.
