Caution:
It is important to have a stable power source and ensure that power to the Vanguard 3000 is not interrupted
during a firmware upgrade. Later-model Vanguard 3000 routers have a “failsafe” feature to help recover from an
interrupted or failed upgrade, but earlier models do not have this feature.
