Hi akak and jcd1126,
I tested it in our laboratory and was not able to reproduce the error. I have successfully updated the firmware from 1.0.9.26_10.2.31 to 1.0.9.28_10.2.32. I updated it using the check button in the router web interface and also tried the manual update. The browser I used is Chrome.
How did you update the firmware?
I suggest to manually update the firmware. Here's the reference link:
There is also Hot Fix firmware available. I recommend to update the firmware to the latest version.

I get the same error, but why wasnt V1.0.9.26_10.2.32 officially released? There is no link on the downloads page. There is only 1.0.9.28 available for download as latest.
There also 1.0.9.30_10.2.33_beta - but who puts beta software in production environment?
Netgear, get your head together - if you release a version, make it available on downloads page too.
Also release notes - why was the hotfix released? Why is it a hotfix? Are there potential problems with original firmware? It would be nice to know those things before we update a small office with 40-50 computers to a broken firmware and have no replacement in case it fails.
