Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800 MD5 Verify Error

[FURRYe38]

Can you all re-check this? I got word from NG that this was fixed on there side.

I am still having the issue and I have an active ticket open with Netgear and they are troubleshooting.

Already on the newer firmware, still get the MD5 error for the GUI language update.  Have a case open with NG they wanted me to factory reset the thing, figure I'll try it over the weekend.

[aprayiii]

Me too... but they have not yet asked me to factory reset. Please let us know if that works 🙂

[FURRYe38]

I'll be trying this as well...

Still no luck, I'm afraid. Currently running firmware version V1.0.2.84 and GUI language version V1.0.0.422, and the Firmware Update Assistant is still giving me the MD5 verification error. Unfortunately the FUA shows here both updates on the same page and doesn't provide any means to select one of them individually, so there's no way I can tell which of the two actually causes this.

OK thanks for letting us know. I got same as well on v.90...still happening. I've passed this on to NG.

Everyone,

Please factory reset your R7800 router and walk thru the setup wizard. The GUI should update correctly now:

Mine updated with out error today.

Wooohooo! Mine worked correctly. And BTW I did NOT have to do any sort of reset, just went to the update and it worked fine from a Chrome session connected wirelessly.

Glad it's working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.

Successful dual update of firmware (V1.0.2.84 to V1.0.2.90) and GUI language (V1.0.0.422 to V1.0.0.425), via the Firmware Update Assistant 🙂

Like @aprayiii, no factory reset was needed in my case.

Many thanks for your support!

Glad it's working now. 

Be sure to save off a back up config to file for safe keeping.

Enjoy. 😊
