I have tried to flash the old Nov 2017 firmware 3 separate times....but the new firmware is still on my S9. Can't seem to get the old firmware to install. Fortunately I only installed the new on fewer than 10 of my S9s but would like to change them back until this decreasing hashrate issue is resolved.

Anyone have an idea what I might be missing/doing wrong?

Downloaded the file from Bitmain, click on system" tab, then "upgrade", then "choose file" (the old firmware file shows in the "file chosen" box), and then I click "flash image". S9 appears to act like it is flashing but when it is available same new firmware image is still there!!

Thanks
