Wireless-B Broadband Router
The Administration Tab - Firmware Upgrade
Firmware can be upgraded by following these instructions. Do not upgrade your firmware unless you are
experiencing problems with the Router. You can lose your settings when you upgrade the firmware, so Linksys
recommends that you back up your settings first. You can back up your configuration from the Management
screen of the Administration tab.
To upgrade your firmware:
Download the firmware from Linksys's website at www.linksys.com/international (choose your region/
country and proceed as directed by the web page).
Enter the location of the firmware's file or click the Browse button to find the file. Then, click the Upgrade button
to upgrade the firmware.
For more information about upgrading firmware, refer to "Appendix C: Upgrading Firmware".

IMPORTANT: Upgrading the firmware could
eraseall of your settings (WEP Encryption,
Wireless and LAN settings, etc.), and replace them
with the factory defaults. Linksys recommends
that you back up your configuration settings
before you upgrade the firmware.
