I have a D-Link router. Its software (firmware) causes a lot of problems so I try to update it. My router model is DSL-2730U so I downloaded the original firmware from this site: When I update the software, it says that the file is illegal. I really need to update it because what I use now is not the original firmware and does not work properly. I would like to know what does it mean by 'Illegal'? And What should I do to make it legal?

Or where can I get a good firmware? Here are two pictures that describe my issue.
