Upgrading Router Firmware
Tools > Firmware
You can upgrade to a newer software version from the Administration web page. In
the Firmware Upgrade section, to upgrade your firmware, click Browse, locate and
select the firmware image on your host, and click Upgrade. After the new firmware
image is validated, the new image is written to flash, and the router is automatically
rebooted with the new firmware. The Firmware Information and also the
Status >
Device Info > Device Status
page will reflect the new firmware version.
IMPORTANT!
During firmware upgrade, do NOT try to go online, turn off the
DSR, shut down the PC, or interrupt the process in anyway until the operation is
complete. This should take only a minute or so including the reboot process.
Interrupting the upgrade process at specific points when the flash is being written
to may corrupt the flash memory and render the router unusable without a low-level
process of restoring the flash firmware (not through the web GUI).
