Turned out, at least for my box there is no real link it tries to access for the update, so it will always fail.

Considering their release strategy and time stamping procedure the firmware was created sometime Feb- March 2016.

Nothing beast a fresh firmware when it comes to removing ALL your user data. You can also try a wipe and factory reset from the recovery console if you don't want to flash a firmware. With the S905 and S906 chipsets the good thing is that basically every box with the same amount of memory and same WiFi chip will be compatible for a firmware donation. Big downside of this way is that you get a box branded for some other manufacturer and that the remote might not work at all. No big deal if you prefer a WiFi mouse/keyboard kombo anyway. And of course not every firmware comes in a format the X96 can use right away.
