New Features:

  1. Wi-Fi certified firmware.
  2. No reboot is needed for a configuration change from the GUI.
  3. Traffic Meter - Maximum volume of monthly limit is increased from 99GB (5 digits) to 999GB (6 digits).

Bugs Fixed:

  1. Firmware Upgrade - When the Apple Safari version 2.0.4 is used to access the router's management GUI and upgrade the firmware, the progress bar cannot be displayed. The firmware upgrade is still working, and the "Update Settings" progress bar shows up after the firmware upgrade is done.
  2. Traffic Meter - For the DHCP connection type, if the traffic meter function is enabled and the user's setting is to block the traffic after the limit has been reached, then when the traffic volume limit is reached, the Internet traffic is blocked as expected. But after a router reboot, the Internet traffic will not be blocked.
  3. Traffic Meter - The option "Turn the Internet LED to flashing green/amber" doesn't work if the option "Disconnect and disable the Internet connection" is not checked.
  4. Log - At the Logs page, the Clear log button and Send log buttons do not work.

Installation Instructions:

  1. Download the firmware to a convenient place such as your desktop.
  2. Log in the router using http://www.routerlogin.net.
  3. Click Maintenance > Router Upgrade.
  4. Click Browse and locate the file you just downloaded.
  5. Click Upload. While the firmware is loading, do not interrupt the upgrade process.
  6. The router reboots when the upgrade is complete.
  7. After the router boots up, log in the router again.
  8. To check that the upgrade was successful, log in to the router again at http://www.routerlogin.net and check the firmware version.
