Under the Help tab, you’ll find links to all of the Gateway’s internal support
documentation, including the application that upgrades the Gateway’s
firmware.
New firmware versions are posted at www.linksys.com and can be downloaded
for free. If the Gateway can access the Internet already, there’s no need to
download a newer firmware version, unless that version has a new feature that
you want to use. Loading new firmware onto the Gateway does not enhance
the speed or the quality of your connection speed.
