Firmware Upgrade Instructions:

Note: To avoid wireless disconnect issues during the firmware download process, NETGEAR recommends that the firmware upgrade be performed on a computer with a wired connection.

1. Write down all the settings that were changed from the default values as you may need to re-enter them manually.
2. Using the Download Link below, download and extract the new firmware to a convenient place such as your desktop. The filename after extracting is R7800-V1.0.2.46.img

   Download Link:http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/R7800/R7800-V1.0.2.46.zip

3. To log in to the router type http://www.routerlogin.net into your web browser address bar (such as Internet Explorer or Google Chrome).
4. Click ADVANCED tab >Administration  > Firmware Upgrade.
5. Click Browse and find the file you just downloaded.
6. Click Upload. Do not interrupt the upgrade during this step.

If problems occurs after upgrading, try clearing the configuration by pressing the Reset Push Button on the Rear panel until the Power LED blinks (about 5 seconds). Then reenter your configuration information manually.

Important Note:

• The upgrade process is complete when the on screen progress bar completes.
• If the upgrade progress bar on web GUI doesn't display correctly during firmware upgrade, you can still check the status using Power LED. The Power LED should be blinking (amber) during firmware upgrade. After firmware upgrade is done and boots up the system, it changes to steady amber color, then after the boot up is finished it changes to steady white 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.
