Firmware update failes on satellites

Hi all.

I have downloaded the firmware 1.1.6.122 for my MK63 system.

The instructions says that I have to start with the satellites first.

But I get the message:

 

This firmware file is incorrect! Please get the firmware file again and make sure it is the correct firmware for this product.

 

Whats wrong???

Your picture shows you're trying to update the satellite firmware to the router. Not to the satellite

Also one of the files is MS and one is MR. 

The MR is for the router. The MS is for the satellite.

Re: Firmware update failes on satellites

For your future needs, Netgear has set up a community forum specifically for the NightHawk MESH products. Most of the people who watch that forum are more likely to have experience with NH MESH products and know how to work it better than those of us who follow this router forum. Might be more likely to find someone who has a solution if the question is posted there:

Please use this link to the main forum product list to review and choose where to make your posts.

Thank you.
