Help
Under the Help tab, you’ll find links to all of the Utility’s internal support
documentation, including the application that upgrades the Router’s firmware.
New firmware versions are posted on www.linksys.com, and can be down-
loaded for free. If your Router 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. “Flashing,” or loading new firmware onto your
Router does not enhance the speed or the quality of your connection speed.
See page 48 for directions on enabling remote firmware upgrades (IP
Filtering).
