Netgear Nighthawk R8000P Firmware Update

I also was unable to update router firmware with the Nighthawk App, it would go for about 2 minutes, then fail, saying to "Try Again" later, which never worked. But it succeeded when I used a browser (FireFox) to 192.168.1.1 and chased it down that way.

Same for me as you already know.
I've escalated this topic to the moderators for investigation.
Problem STILL not solved. Honestly **bleep** netgear and their **bleep** customer support. I can't update manually or automatically to the latest firmware. My router is bricked.
This is such garbage on Netgears behalf. Why is this problem not solved and Why has Netgear refused to comment? The current firmware cuts my speed in HALF from what I should be getting and has serious QoS issues!
