2962 - Warning: Firmware Damage!! You must upgrade FW immediately, ... was created by pcjazzit
Brand new out of the box 2962: firmware installed from factory 4.4.3
Changed admin pw
Change Lan 1 to 192.168.10.1 as the out of the box - 192.168.1.1 clashed with my working network for settng up the new vigor.
re booted --- All Good
Tried to upgrade to "latest" firmware 4.4.3.1 -- Left for over an hour on the updrade screen ... Fimrware upgrade is in prgrogess..
Eventually got a connection broken screen... Restarted browser and was able to log back in the web-admin but now faced with:
Warning: Firmware Damage!!!
You must upgrade FW immediately, or the router will die after reboot!
Tried to reinstall 4.4.3 --- very quickly (couple of seconds) get the connection broken screen. on-logging back in still getting the Warning.
I have not rebooted yet as dont want to create a new Brick.
Note the latest firmware is listed as 4.3.2.8 even though the is a 4.4.3.1 on the download page.
Anyone tried to upgrade to 4.4.3.1?
Cheers

I have had this issue before with Edge/Chrome. Try using Firefox and/or InPrivate browsing

Yes a different browser may help.
You can also try the firmware utility https://www.draytek.co.uk/support/downloads/software

Thankyou all.
I eventually used the FirmwareUpgrade utility and that allowed my top upgrade the Firmware to 4.4.3/v23 (4.4.3.1)
