I have a Philips 47PFL7666K LED TV and a few weeks ago I started the firmware update process. Because I do not trust the WIFI that it is good enough for such a critical update process I donwloaded the fimrware on an usb stick. The size of the zip file ist 74 MB.
The installed firmware on my tv was the q5551-0.10.65.11 version. This one was very old and I donwloaded the latest version from the philips homepage.

I just unpacked the zip file on an usb stick and reboot the TV. Then I fellowed the instruction on in the manual.
After the update was finished the TV rebooted and the latest firmware was installed.
