Automatically Check and Send E-mail
If “Automatically Check for New Version and Notify via Email” is selected, enter
the period of time the Router checks for a new upgrade, and the

URL

at which to

get the upgrade, in the appropriate text boxes. The Router will then check at each
time interval for firmware upgrades and, if one is available, send an E-mail to the
E-mail address listed in the System Settings.

Automatic Check Disabled
If “Automatically Check Disabled” is selected, the Router will not automatically
check for firmware upgrades.

Manual Checking and Upgrading
To manually upgrade the Router’s firmware:

1. Click Check Now in the Firmware Upgrade screen.

2. If a new version is available, click Force Upgrade. A download process will

begin. When downloading is completed, a confirmation screen appears, asking
whether to upgrade to the new version.

3. Click OK. The upgrade process will begin and should take no longer than one

minute to complete.

At the conclusion of the upgrade process the Router automatically reboots. The new
firmware runs, maintaining any custom configurations and settings.
