Linksys EA-Series

Why would I need to upgrade my router’s firmware? Linksys may periodically 

publish a firmware upgrade either to fix a problem or to add features to your 

router. 

Do not interrupt the upgrade process. You should not turn off the 

router or press the Reset button during the upgrade. Doing so may 

permanently disable the router.

Your router automatically checks for available updates and 

installs them by default. Use the following instructions only if the 

automatic firmware update has been turned off.

To upgrade the router’s firmware:
1.  Log into Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See “How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-

2.  Under Router Settings, click Connectivity. 
3.  Click the Basic tab.
4.  Under Firmware Update, click Check for Updates. 
5.  If an available update is found, follow the on-screen instructions to install 

it.

To have your router automatically check for updates and install 

them, select Automatic under Firmware Update. 

If you’ve tried previous troubleshooting steps and your network still doesn’t 

work, you may need to restore your router’s factory defaults. To restore your 

router to factory defaults, you can use the Reset button on the router or use 

Linksys Smart Wi-Fi.

Whenever you restart the router, all logs that are not saved will be 

lost.

1.  With your router connected to power and turned on, press and hold the 

Reset button on the back of your router for about 10 seconds (until the 

power indicator flashes).

To reset your router to factory defaults using Linksys Smart Wi-Fi:
1.  Log into Linksys Smart Wi-Fi. (See “How to connect to Linksys Smart Wi-

2.  Under Router Settings, click Troubleshooting. 
3.  Click the Diagnostics tab.
4.  Under Factory reset, click Reset.
