Important Note:

• The upgrade process is complete when the on screen progress bar completes. If the power LED light turns amber and blinks, power cycle the router to complete the upgrade.
• If the upgrade progress bar on web GUI doesn't display correctly during the firmware upgrade, you can still check the status using the Power LED. The Power LED should be blinking (amber) during firmware upgrade. After the firmware upgrade is complete and the system boots up, it changes to a steady amber color.
• Please DO NOT power off or reboot the device during the firmware upgrade, otherwise, it may result in corrupt firmware and cause the device not to work.
