i've been trying to update the firmware for my netgear (wgr614v9) router for a while now. i've downloaded the file at least half a dozen times but it keeps saying invalid path or filename when i hit "upload" what is the reason behind this? the new firmware is 1.2.6NA (according to the website). any help would be greatly appreciated!!

i've downloaded the file at least half a dozen times but it keeps saying invalid path or filename when i hit "upload" what is the reason behind this?

Where exactly are you downloading this file to?

What browser are you using?

Try changing the path you are downloading to... ie, if you are downloading to the desktop, then instead download it to... C:/wgr614v9 as an example. if you place it directly in C:/ , then when you are logged into the router it will be easier to select the file when browsing...

Get back to me with how this works, and I will assist you further...

Good luck
