Upgrade the Router Firmware
The router firmware (routing software) is stored in flash memory. You can update the
firmware from the Administration menu on the Advanced tab. You might see a message at
the top of the Genie screens when new firmware is available for your product.

firmware for your product if new firmware is available.
To check for new firmware and update your router:
1.
Select
Advanced > Administration > Router Update
to display the following screen:
Click

2.

WARNING!
When uploading firmware to the router,
do not
interrupt the web
browser by closing the window, clicking a link, or loading a new

When the upload is complete, your router restarts. The upgrade process typically takes
about 1 minute. Read the new firmware release notes to determine whether or not you
need to reconfigure the router after upgrading.
