Newfie Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Normally they come in a zip which you unzip and out pops .img. You go to router, browser to the .img and then install. The router will upload and install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newfie Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Stop there. You need to pull the .img out of the zip then on the laptop you log in to your router, go to update, browse and select .img then click install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted October 29, 2020 Administrators Share Posted October 29, 2020 Open the zip file on your PC, then in the window that opens, drag the .img file out of it onto your desktop for example. Then go back to the router update firmware page and click browse, then choose the .img file to upgrade. Newfie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Killhippie Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Just give up it may be safer to wait for the actual release, if you cant use a zip file imagine If your router needed TFTP recovery you would be even more confused. Better to quit while you are ahead. This is meant to help and not be nasty as you are really struggling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTML5 is much safer also Flash is being killed off, I have not used it myself in years as Flash player is such an easy target for malware. Even Adobe are killing it off on the 31st of December this year thankfully. Just what my OBS defaulted to, I rarely use it and didn't bother looking at the file format. I've changed it on OBS to mp4 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
