You might see a message at the top of the genie screens when new firmware is available for your product.

Select Advanced > Administration > Router Update. Click Check 2. Click Check. The router finds new firmware information if any is available. 3. Click Yes. The firmware is downloaded. The router locates the firmware you downloaded (the file ends in .img) and begins the update. WARNING: To avoid the risk of corrupting the firmware, do not interrupt the upgrade. For example, do not close the browser, click a link, or load a new page. Do not turn off the router. When the upload is complete, your router restarts. The upgrade process typically takes about 1 minute. To determine whether you need to reconfigure the router after upgrading, read the new firmware release notes. Administration 76
