Firmware Upgrade Instructions

– NOTE: To avoid wireless disconnection issues during firmware downloads, NETGEAR recommends performing firmware upgrades on a computer with a wired connection.
– Make a note of any settings changed from defaults, as you may need to re-enter them manually.
– Download the new firmware and unzip it somewhere convenient, such as your desktop.
– Log in to the router using a web browser.
– Click the Advanced tab > Administration > Firmware Upgrade.
– Click Browse and locate the file you just downloaded.
– Click Upload. Do not interrupt the upgrade while the router is doing this step.

Important note:

– When the progress bar on the screen is complete, the upgrade process is complete. If the Power LED turns amber and blinks, restart the router to complete the upgrade.
– If the upgrade progress bar on the web GUI is not displayed correctly during the firmware upgrade, you can still check the status using the power LED. The power LED should blink (amber) during the firmware upgrade. It turns solid amber when the firmware upgrade is complete and the system boots.
– Please do not power off or restart the device during the firmware upgrade, otherwise it may cause firmware corruption and cause the device not to work.

About the access point firmware:

If you update your access point (AP) firmware, your device can benefit from fixes for several issues encountered by wireless clients, correction of various user interface issues, addition of various features, and changes including support for newly developed protocols .

We recommend that you read and understand all installation steps before performing this task, as there are many AP models and manufacturers to choose from. Every producer strives to make the procedure as simple as possible, but sometimes that’s not the case.

It is also recommended that you apply the new access point firmware in a stable power environment (a UPS unit will meet this requirement), using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection. The latter is easily interrupted.

With that in mind, if you wish to apply this release, click the download button and install the package on your access point. Remember to check back on our site as often as possible so you don’t miss a new release.
