Upgrading Firmware


New firmware upgrades from Asoka are made available periodically. Firmware upgrades

contain feature improvements and fixes to problems or bugs that may exist. When Asoka

releases new firmware, you can download the firmware from Asoka’s web site at

http://www.asokausa.com

and update your Router’s firmware to the latest version.


To upload a new firmware upgrade onto the Router, follow these steps.
1. Click

on

Systems in the Main menu.

2. In the Sub menu, select Firmware.
3. Select the appropriate time zone, date and time.
4. Click

Browse to locate the new firmware upgrade file downloaded from Asoka’s web site.

5. The box next to the Browse button will now display the location and name of the firmware

file you just selected.

6. Click

Update.

7. You will be asked if you are sure you want to continue. Click OK.
8. You will see one more message. This message tells you that the router may not respond for as

long as one minute as the firmware is loaded into the router and the router is rebooted. Click
OK.

9. When the firmware upgrade is complete, the router home page should appear

automatically. If not, type in the router’s address (default – 192.168.1.1) into the address or

navigation bar of your web browser.


Note: It is sometimes desirable to restore original default settings for the router. This can be done

by using the Clear Old Configuration function, which will restore all factory settings. After an
erase, the router’s username will be Admin, the password will be Welcome, the LAN IP address
will be 192.168.1.1 and the router’s DHCP server will be set to Enabled.
