Says who? What, exactly, did you download? What, exactly, did you
do with whatever you downloaded? How does what you did compare with the
instructions in the R7000 User Manual?
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".)
When that fails because of a deficient User Manual, try:

That's the firmware that you need to get on to your R7000. Don't just "click" it. Follow the instructions.
