There are broken links on the webpage https://www.arduino.cc/en/Hacking/DFUProgramming8U2
Under the headings:
"Download updated firmware"
"If your board is Arduino UNO R1 "
"Reset the 8u2 or 16u2 "
there are links to images and firmware that just give a 404 error.

Thanks for reporting these issues!
Last year, I reported the broken link to the updated firmware (as well as other issues on that page) here:

The broken images seems to have happened in only the last day or two, I've noticed it on quite a few of the pages on this website. If you would like to report the missing images issue, the best place to do it is by opening an issue report here:

Hi,
As I wanted to read three tutorials from the website, I noticed that all … the images where missing (404).
The 3 pages are :
- <https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Standalone>
- <https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoToBreadboard>
- <https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP>
But it seems they are not the only ones.
Can you please make the images available again ?
Thanks.
Hopefully it will be resolved soon.
