It's only for R3. R3G does not have official English version.

You could check R3P firmware http://bigota.miwifi.com/xiaoqiang/rom/r3p/miwifi_r3p_all_b9683_2.10.46_INT.bin , but I don't know if it will work.

I have downloaded a number of files from a number of sources (including your link) and got the "file verification failed" on all of them.
