    I have a netgear WPN824v3 router. Firmware Version V1.0.7_1.0.8NA. It needs to be updated. I go to http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12990 and down load Firmware Version 1.0.8_1.0.7 then go into my router hit upgrade and select my file I downloaded and it says invalid file name. The file is zipped so I try to open it using winzip it says error: internal error processing iso image. Am I doing something wrong here LOL im just trying to upgrade my firmware. Please help. Oh Im using a laptop running windows 7 thanks

    Hi

    Try redownloading it again and make sure you have the correct file for your region (as they have a North American one and a None NA one) and you should not need to unzip it as the router updates from the .img file type.

    If you are using Firefox to download or connect to your routers menu, then try IE as Netgear confirm that this may happen in Firefox 3 versions and they have not updated as yet to fix this.
