Mods, can you move this to the proper forum so I can get the help I need please? Thanks.

Also just a guess: most firmware update utilities I've seen are Windows apps. You usually cannot upgrade from a Mac.

[HELP] Linksys E4200 Firmware Upgrade Problem

Wed, 19 Dec 2012 23:35:27 EDT

Alpha Phoenix posted : I just purchased a Linksys E4200 (v2) Dual-Band N750 Wireless Router and it's running the 2.0.26.124551 firmware. I see that there is the 2.1.39.145204 firmware upgrade available on their site: »homesupport.cisco.com/en-us/supp···rs/E4200

I downloaded the updated firmware and unzipped the file which is in a .SSA format, and tried to manually update the firmware, but I keep getting this error message:

The image file is incorrect.

I even tried running the Online Upgrade/Upgrade Automatically option, but it says:

Your router software is up to date

Running Mac OS 10.7.5 and tried it on Firefox, and Chrome, as well as on a Windows Vista machine using Firefox. Still no success.

What can I do to have the firmware upgrade go through properly? Help!
