Upgrading the firmware
New firmware for your router is made available periodically by Gateway.
Firmware upgrades may provide enhanced features, increased compatibility, or
an updated interface.
Check your firmware version and date (found on the Status page) against the
latest version on the Gateway Web site (www.gateway.com). If a new version
is available, download it to a computer on your network, then complete the
following procedure.
To upgrade the firmware:

Firmware window opens.

Upgrade to begin the upgrade process.

When the upgrade process is finished, the router will restart. This may take
several minutes and the router’s Internet connection will be lost during
this time.
