Upgrading the firmware
New firmware for your router is made available periodically by Gateway. Firmware upgrades may provide enhanced features, increased compatibility, or an updated interface.
Check your firmware version and date (found on the Status page) against the latest version on the Gateway Web site (www.gateway.com). If a new version is available, download it to a computer on your network, then complete the following procedure.
To upgrade the firmware:
1 Click Upgrade Firmware in the Advanced Features section. The Upgrade Firmware window opens.
2 Enter the password in the Wireless Router Password box.
3 Click Browse, then locate and click the firmware file previously downloaded to your computer, then click Open to select the file.
4 When the upgrade file and path appear in the Upgrade File field, click Start Upgrade to begin the upgrade process.
5 When the upgrade process is finished, the router will restart. This may take several minutes and the router’s Internet connection will be lost during this time.
6 Click Cancel to remove the information in the Upgrade File box. Clicking Cancel will not stop the upgrade process if it has already started.
