SYSTEM TOOLS : Firmware Upgrade 

Steps to upgrade the router’s firmware 

Here is how you go about upgrading your router’s firmware with the latest update: 
 
1. Select 

Firmware Upgrade under the SYSTEM TOOLS command menu. 

 
2.  Ensure that you have downloaded the latest firmware into a location on your hard 

disk drive. 

 
3.  Click on the Browse button to search 

your hard drive for the new firmware  
file. 

 
4. Press 

the 

Upgrade button to begin 

the firmware upgrade.  

 

 

 

 
5.  Once the firmware upgrade process is 

completed, your router will 
automatically restart. 

 
 
 
 
    
 
 

 

Important: It is critical that the firmware upgrade process

is NOT interrupted. Ensure that the router is not turned off
and that power is not cut off from the router, or it will
render the device unusable.
