I thought it was up to date since "check for update" feature returned that this is the newest firmware. Now I'm not sure which firmware I have and which I had before. After I did manual update to 0.56 the System Information page still displays .40 as firmware version.

So maybe it was already running this version since I remember that I updated firmware once after buying the router.

I used the Settings -> LAN Setup -> Address Reservation to do that and didn't help.
Didn't need to do this for multiple devices since only my PC was connected to the router after the factory reset.
