Update Software
Software upgrading lets you experience the new and integral function of your router.
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 revised, 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 Software
to update the firmware in your
router. You will see the update in progress widow. Wait about 2 minutes for the router to update
software. If necessary, reconfigure your PC’s IP, then open your web browser.
