Find firmware version from admin local site?
Hello, is there a way to find the firmware version from admin local site? It keeps wanting me to do Insight which I don't won't to do. Where do I find this by the admin page by the router IP address?...
Sorry not to clarify. By local admin connection I mean by internal IP address like 192.168.1.1. From there it doesn't show anything about the firmware. I can see it in Smart Control Center, but 1/2 the time when I try to connect it won't find the router. By internal IP address I can do it everytime, it just doesn't list it there unless it's under Software Version?

It is there when I go to that page:
It is one of the most obvious things there. Where are you looking?
There are other ways, but that is the easiest.

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual (at least). Read. Look for
"firmware"? I know nothing, but I might start with "System" or
"Maintenance".
