    Upgrading via TFTP client did not work. TFTP could not establish connection.

     

    Solution was to upgrade firmware via Telnet client.

    Please note, this method requires TFTP server (not client) to be running on a PC. Once this is set up, telnet into router and upgrade via "util firmware_upgrade image_name.img TFTP_Server_IP" command.
