Tip: Before upgrading the router software, use the router backup menu to save your configuration settings. A router upgrade may revert the router settings back to the factory defaults. If so, after completing the upgrade, you can restore your settings from the backup.
The routing software of the WNR834M router is stored in FLASH memory, and can be upgraded as new software is released by NETGEAR. Upgrade files can be downloaded from the NETGEAR Web site. If the upgrade file is compressed (.ZIP file), you must first extract the file before sending it to the router. The upgrade file can be sent to the router using your browser.
Note: The Web browser used to upload new firmware into the WNR834M router must 
support HTTP uploads. NETGEAR recommends using Microsoft Internet Explorer
or Netscape Navigator 3.0 or above.
