XR1000 won’t update beyond firmware 1.0.0.78

Hi,

I’m having an issue updating my Netgear XR1000.

• Current firmware: 1.0.0.78_1.0.65
• I downloaded the latest official firmware (XR1000-V1.0.2.86_2.1.40.chk) from the Netgear website.
• Updating through the web interface always fails with a firmware update error.
• I also recovered the router successfully using nmrpflash, but after recovery it still boots into 1.0.0.78 instead of 1.0.2.86.
• The router works normally, but I cannot upgrade to any newer firmware.

Has anyone experienced this issue before? Is there a required intermediate firmware version, or is this a known problem with the XR1000?

Thank you.

You're on the beta where there are issues getting off of it, you'll have to try this version first, if you can upgrade to it then you can upgrade from there https://forum.netduma.com/topic/60122-new-xr1000-beta-firmware-dumaos-33688-upgrading-fix/
