What firmware version are you on?
One thing, I'd recommend against updating using the app or over wireless. when we see corrupt firmware versions, its usually when done via the app or wireless. I'd do it over a hardwired connection for best results.
When the speeds slowed down, did you ever try a factory reset and reinstall? if there's issues after changing firmwares, thats one of the first things we recommend.

Re: Nighthawk R8000p router keeps trying to update
There is a known issue with firmware version 1.4.1.50. not being able to upgrade ... check the posts for the "story" ie "Netgear Nighthawk R8000P Firmware Update"
( I had similar and had to get the r8000p replaced, then ensured by manual upgrade that the replacement didnt "upgrade" to version 1.4.1.50.)
