Error upgrading TD8970 to latest firmware

Region : UnitedKingdom

Model : TD-W8970

Hardware Version : V1

Firmware Version : 0.6.0 2.8 v000c.0 Build 130828 Rel.38099n

ISP :


Just noticed that new firmware has been released for TD8970. When I try to upgrade the firmware I get the error message:

"Error code: 71211
Failed to upload upgrade file! You may upload a wrong file."

Apart from the obvious (it's the wrong file), any other ideas how I might get the upgrade to work?

Do you have downloaded this firmware from TP-Link website? What kind of browser are you using?

I used Chrome but since you asked the question I tried with Firefox and got the same error message. Tried with IE and it worked!

Thanks.
