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.

To check for new firmware and update your router:

2.

Click Check.

The router finds new firmware if available.

Click Yes to update and locate the firmware you downloaded (the file ends in .img).

WARNING!

When uploading firmware to the router, do not interrupt the web
browser by closing the window, clicking a link, or loading a new
page. If the browser is interrupted, the firmware might be
corrupted.

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 you need to
