OK, furthermore, the factory reste will change its IP to 192.168.1.1 as this sub network is 192.168.2.x ; I'll do it next time I go in this lovely region of Pau (France) !

Hi Kerebel,
Welcome to the community! :)
Since firmware v3.0.9-02 is an old firmware version, I suggest you to upgrade the firmware in a ladderized manner. First, upgrade the firmware from v3.0.9-02 to v3.1.1-08. Then, upgrade the firmware from v3.1.1-08 to v4.3.1-18 and so on until you get to upgrade to the latest firmware v4.4.3-6. Be reminded to perform a factory reset on the FVS336Gv2 after upgrading the firmware to the latest version then reconfigure it from scratch in order to have a clean start using the latest firmware.
You may download the firmware versions for the FVS336Gv2 here.

Thanks for your prompt answer.
As this routeur is located in a remote site, I suppose it's recommanded to upgrade it on site and not through our VPN from the head quarters ?

It would be best if you perform the firmware upgrade on-site so that you can have physical access as well as you could observe the behavior of the LED lights of the FVS336Gv2 as you proceed with firmware upgrade process.
