R7800 Updated to 1.0.2.90, now wants to install V1.0.0.423
I checked on my router updates and an update was suggested: V1.0.2.84(~) to V1.0.2.90. Using the firmware assistant, it reported an MD5 Checksum error and failed to install. Per other discussions on ...
got a screen snip showing it?
Thats GUI (Graphical User Interface) langage version update, not FW.
The messaging on this is terrible, if that's a separate subinstall. It says clearly "New firmware is found. Do you want to update the firmware?" At top right "Router firmware Version". At the least, it needs to say: "Your current firmware is up-to-date. Your language pack is needs to be updated. Do you want to update the language pack?" I know lazy developer (non)thinking... I am one.
The MD5 checksum error isn't exactly a trust-builder either.
Same here
