So attempted a recommended firmware upgrade and it fails from within the internet download on the web interface of the device.

However the device also says we should not attempt to use it while it upgrades.

So any suggestions as to how to upgrade a device without using the device to upgrade itself?

Yes I have it downloaded to my pc and I am going to attempt it from there later however I still fail to see an unattended upgrade button anywhere.

Not sure what your problem is? I've never had that happen, but if you DID d/l the file, you'll need to UNZIP it first, and then load it in.

Here is a link to your MANUAL, https://www.tp-link.com/us/user-guides/archer-ax10&ax1500_v1/chapter-13-manage-the-router#ug-sub-title-1

Check Chapter 13, especially section 1.2 please.

@IrvSp Have the manual and I know it is a zip file. But thanks

@IrvSp However that does not address either question, How is one supposed to update the machine if one is not using it to do so and why does it continue to fail. As you did not ever have the problem you can not help other then to earn yourself points for answering with a non answer.

But Thanks Again

Like I said, I never HAD that problem.

Don't confuse 'using' it with being able to UPDATE it. What that means, STOP all operations on the router by all devices.

Not that you can't let it be in use. During the process of UPDATING it will D/L the f/w and then basically DROP everything else, and start installing the f/w and then REBOOT the router.

Now you keep mentioning 'failing' but don't disclose how or provide the error you see.

If you can't do it via the UPDATE process, and you DID ASK how to install it locally, I replied how do it.

I don't need points or anything else and I resent your remark as I'm trying to help you.

I am done with THIS...

Goodbye!
