Update the Router Firmware
The router firmware (routing software) is stored in flash memory. You might see a message at the top of
the genie screens when new firmware is available. You can respond to that message to update the
firmware or you can check to see if new firmware is available and update your product.
To check for new firmware and update your router:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the network.
2.
Type http://www.routerlogin.net .
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4.
Select ADVANCED > Administration > Firmware Update.
The Router Update page displays.
5.
Click the Check button.
The router finds new firmware information if any is available and displays a message asking if you
want to download and install it.
6.
Click the Yes button.
The router locates and downloads the firmware and begins the update.
Warning
To avoid the risk of corrupting the firmware, do not interrupt the upgrade.
For example, do not close the browser, click a link, or load a new page. Do
not turn off the router.
When the upload is complete, your router restarts. The upgrade process typically takes about one
minute. Read the new firmware release notes to find out if you need to reconfigure the router after
upgrading.
Change the admin Password
This feature let you change the default password that is used to log in to the router with the user name
admin. This password is not the one that you use for WiFi access.
