Wireless-G Router WGR614v10 Reference Manual

Upgrading the Router Software

The routing software (also called firmware) of the Wireless-G Router is stored in flash memory, and can be upgraded as NETGEAR releases new software. Your router can download and install the new software, or you can download upgrade files from the NETGEAR website and manually send the upgrade file to the router using your browser.

Tip: To ensure that you are always using the latest router firmware, enable the Firmware Upgrade Assistant feature so that the router will automatically detect a new version of the firmware on the Internet and alert you to its availability.

The Checking for Firmware Updates screen appears at login unless you clear the Check for Updated Firmware Upon Log-incheck box.
