This chapter describes how to use the maintenance features of your RangeMax Wireless-N Gigabit
Router with USB WNR3500L. You can access these features by selecting the items under
Maintenance in the main menu of the browser interface.
This chapter includes the following sections:
• “Upgrading the Router Firmware”
• “Viewing Wireless Router Status Information” on page 4-4

• “Managing the Configuration File” in Chapter 4
• “Enabling Remote Management Access” on page 4-11
Upgrading the Router Firmware
The routing software (also called firmware) of the WNR3500L 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 upon login.
