Firmware Upgrade
Your router’s “firmware” is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its functionality. Think of
your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the software it runs. Over time this software
may be improved and modified, and your router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take
advantage of these changes.
Clicking on Browse will allow you to select the new firmware image file you have downloaded to your PC.
Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the firmware in your router.
53
DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware upgrading while
it is still in process. Improper operation could damage the router.
