    Ok...I had to go through about 7 firmware update .img files starting with the one closest to the version I with which I purchased the router. 

     

    Once I got to v2.3...I was able to skip to the current 2.7...version.

     

    All done! Thank you for your help.

Thank you for your response. Must I upgrade step by step versions until I get to the 2.7...104 or can I skip a few after the 2.3...that you suggest?

 

Again...thank you.
