Firmware Upgrade

At this screen you can check to see if a new firmware version is available, and install it. (Firmware controls your router’s operation, and newer versions may give you more options or increase performance.)

Before downloading and installing new firmware, you should connect your computer to the router with an Ethernet cable (see page 7).

Click here to check for latest firmware: Click this link to find out if new firmware is available. If so, follow the instructions to download the new firmware to your local hard drive.

Click Browse to search the local hard drive for the firmware to be used for the upgrade.

Click Apply to complete the upgrade. The screen will display a notice that the router is restarting.

NOTE: Upgrading the firmware will not change any of your system settings, but you should save your system settings before upgrading your firmware (see page 35).
