 Note: 
1)  New firmware versions are posted at http://www.tp-link.com and can be downloaded for free. 
There is no need to upgrade the firmware unless the new firmware has a new feature you 
want to use. However, when experiencing problems caused by the Router rather than the 
configuration, you can try to upgrade the firmware.

upgrading the firmware please write down some of your customized settings to avoid losing 
important settings.

Loss of power during the upgrade could damage the Router.
