Update netgear firmware without internet connection. You can either click on the router settings on the left hand panel or on the click here link under the router settings thumbnail. After you click yes do not try to go online turn off the router or do anything else to the router until it finishes restarting. If you are unable to connect to the internet from the router location you could ask a friend with a working internet connection to download the firmware and give it to you on a usb memory stick.

Or without the third party software. Click firmware and software downloads. Click the upload button.

If it is in the form of a zip file you will have to unzip it. Click choose file or browse then locate and select the firmware file that ends in img or chk. If new firmware is available click yes.

Connect the computer to the router and assign a static ip of the router s default range 192 168 1 x or 192 168 0 x on the lan connection. The router searches for new firmware. R8000 firmware update error no connectivity.

The label varies by router. Under current versions select the firmware version that you want to download and then click the download button. If upgrading via router update where the router downloads from the netgear server i see no problem in using a wireless connection.
