R7960P firmware not upgrading
I have attempted multiple times to upgrade my current firmware, V1.4.1.44_1.3.5, to V1.4.1.50_1.3.10 and it fails. I have tried letting the router update itself and also downloading upgrade zip file ...

Does anyone have an opinion about the real-world worth of QAM-1024 for 5GHz vs. QAM-256? I'm wondering because that's a significant difference between the two Netgear models on sale at Costco. Wish QAM wasn't the limiting factor for the ax45 vs. the ax50 (I think those are the less $ ones on sale - going on memory) ...but probably w/ wifi6 devices way out in the future - at least for my family - it wouldn't make any difference at all to a house w/ AC (and slower) devices.

I forgot to mention that our current router does QA-1024 from what I remember, so the 45 is a downgrade re: that functionality (I think).
