How to update Apple TV 2

Hello,


I am trying to update my Apple 2nd Gen TV to latest iOS 5.1. However when i go via Menu option & click for "Check For Updates". The update is failing saying, can't download the update. My internet connection is fine & APple TV is able to download movies, but not this update.


Is there a way i can update it connecting to my laptop? Earlier I had updated iOS vi Wi-Fi, but this time it is failing.


Any help will be greatly appreciated.

AppleTV 2, iOS 5.0.1

I'm in the same boat. Others are too. Others are even unluckier as they have downloaded it and are now stuck with two icons. Count yourself lucky in some regard that you haven't been able to update.
