Model :

Hardware Version :

Firmware Version :

ISP :

I have a TL-PA9020(US) with firmware version 3.2.4_902011_161009_902, and no matter what I do it won't upgrade to the newest version (BCM60500_v3.2.4b_20170703_US_PA9020v1.0.ggl)
I'm using the newest tpPLC utility (tried both Mac and Windows) but I keep getting 'Update failed.'
The 2nd unit in the kit eventually upgraded, but even that one I had to try several times.
Any suggestions?

maybe the broadcast packets in LAN influence it. try to disable the protocol in adapter and upgrade again

Seriously? That's about as nonsensical as advice can possibly get.

Factory-reset the adapter first, then update, then pair it back into your network - without disabling any vital functions in it.

Well, apparently this adapter had a Canadian firmware originally (even though the sticker on it says TL-PA9020(US) ), so it refused to load the updated (US) firmware.
Eventually I had to use the ZyXEL updater and that was able to flash the new US firmware on it. Go figure.

same problem here. just bought a AV2000 1.0 EU version, downloaded the last firmware and utility, tried on MAC and Windows and update always fails.

3.2.4_902011_161009_902 is the version in the adapters and I'm trying to update to this one TL-PA9020P KIT(EU)_V1_170628

Every time I try the upgrade it says Update Failed.

I was getting frustrated by getting Updated Failed on all the firmware releases.  I verified the model (TL-PA9020) and the country (US).  However I overlooked the "Version".  I have Version 1.0 (V1) and the model page defaulted to Version 3 (V3).  After selecting the correct version I was able to do the update.laugh

I had assumed I had V3 since the firmware dates were from before when I purchased the adpaters new on Amazon.com.  Not sure if there is any significant difference between the versions but frustrating I didn't the latest one when I bought it.  The Amazon product page makes no mention of hardware version.  angry
