Good point. The FW version for the initial rollout of a new device is often unavailable from Amazon, so, no, you're most likely not doing anything wrong, that's just the way it is.

An effective (i.e., > the factory version) update will "simply" prevent you from attempting this process again, should you ever need to [that means if you screw it up oh so very badly (which usually involves a factory reset *combined* with a FW update)].

Also, IIRC, the visible links have an extra funky SEO layer on my end for the KT4, which doesn't help (i.e., the real URL is behind a 301 request).
