Mikrotik LDF5 Upgrade / Firmware Issue

I'm not able to upgrade a mikrotik LDF5 to 3.23.8.0.

The automatic upgrade via the admin interface says

Firmware CANNOT be updated
firmware file checksum failed



If I manually download firmware from the website and upload it manually (aredn-3.23.8.0-ath79-mikrotik-mikrotik_routerboard-ldf-5nd-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin) , I get the error

Firmware CANNOT be updated
firmware file is not valid: firmware device match failed

Dangerous! :-)
Casey, in a few cases, you have to disable Dangerous Upgrades to proceed.  I believe this is one of them.  It's in Advanced Configuration.

Hey all,This node / device is
Hey all,This node / device is once again causing issues.  LDF5.  I cannot upgrade it past 3.23.12.0.  I tried a few times to upgrade to the past versions, and figured it would get worked out in time.  Today I tried to upgrade to 3.24.4.0, 3.24.10.0, and 20241003-1505d61.  The automatic upgrade version just hangs, and eventually said 'Bad Gateway, the process did not produce any response'.  Trying to install the firmware downloaded from the website says that it is an incompatible format.  Similar to what I reported above, except that when doing the 'automatic' upgrade, it never gives an error message, the whole thing times out.

Correct file?
Casey, doing an Upload, this is the file you should be loading:
aredn-3.24.10.0-ath79-mikrotik-mikrotik_routerboard-ldf-5nd-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

Is that the one you're trying to load?
