Upgrading Automatically to New Router Software
If you have selected Check for New Version Upon Log-in, your router alerts you to the new
software when you log in. Otherwise, you can click the Check button in the Router Upgrade
screen to search for new software.
If the router discovers a newer version of software, the message on the left displays when you log
in. If no new software is available, the message on the right displays.
To automatically upgrade to the new software, click Yes to allow the router to download and install
the new software file from NETGEAR.
When the upload is complete, your router automatically restarts. The upgrade process typically
takes about 1 minute. Read the new software release notes to determine whether you must
reconfigure the router after upgrading.
Upgrading Manually to New Router Software
To manually select, download, and install new software to your router:
1. Under Maintenance on the main menu, select Router Status. Note the version number of your
router firmware.
2. Go to the WNR3500L support page on the NETGEAR website at
