Note: In order to perform an update, you must be logged into the router as the root user (see the Remote Administration
section for more details).
Firmware upgrade
The firmware update process has two steps. The first step is to upload and install the system recovery image onto the router.
You can do this by clicking on the browse button and then to navigate to where the recovery image upgrade file is located on your
computer.
Once you have selected the system recovery image file to use, click Upload to upload the file. You will then see a progress bar as
shown in the screenshot below. The upload has finished when the status bar reaches 100%.

When the upload has completed, the screen should refresh and list the system recovery file you have just uploaded. Click on the
“Install” link to the right of this.
Once you see “Done” shown as per the screenshot below, you can then boot into the system recovery mode to install the main
system software.

Press and hold the reset button for approximately 5 10 seconds until the LEDs on the front of the router start to flash in an ON /
OFF sequence and then release it. The router will now boot into the system recovery mode.
The second step is to upload and install the main system software image. To do this, open your web browser (e.g. Internet
Explorer/Firefox/Safari) and navigate to http://192.168.1.1/
Click “Login” and type root in the Username and admin in the Password fields (without quotes). Then click on “Submit”.
The banner at the top of the page should be different to show that the router is currently in recovery console mode.
