Updating the Router’s Firmware

support site. (Type your part number into the search box in
the top right corner and look for “Firmware” in the title.)
2. Save the file to a location on your computer where
you can get to it easily, such as your desktop.
3. Connect the computer to your Router.

“http://192.168.2.1” and press “Enter” on your keyboard.
