I've always had problems updating firmware.. The last time, the whole unit blew up and had to be sent back... Theres been a firmware thats been out for a while so I thought i should probably update it. I'm connected directed to the router, and the laptop to the router as well. I ran the update and after 3 hours, it finally finished all 120 "blocks", and then it said cannot communicate with apex and then it failed.. I just reran it again, and here is where we are after 25 minutes:

Any ideas? I assume after it gets to 120, it will say timeout again... Also, my Apex is unresponsive right now. I assume because its attempting the update, its not working? My lights are suppose to be on yet they are off.. And I cant get apex to respond to turn them back on....
