If you are going backwards in release number you might still have them (that is from one of the older recalled beta's). However there is NO guarantee they will work. In cases like that you have to RESET the router and then re-apply manually your setting for proper operation.
If you are moving up from and older official release, like V1.0.4 or older you don't need to reset the router but it is advised. In this case I'd give it a try, have any problems, reset and re-enter is the first thing to try. DO NOT load saved settings from any other version into a new one. That seems to be asking for trouble these days.
Sorry forgot to mention how i did the update...I did the firmware update online...typed in routerlogin.net and checked for new firmware and did it online...then i did 2 resets...
Hello,
The best way is to download the firwmare, instead of doing it online. Since you have to do a reset BEFORE installing the new firmware, then another reset AFTER. And of course, never use the backups.
Like Killhippie, I have the latest firmware available and no problem whatsoever with it. WiFi works great, LAN also, printer is fine... Been up for 44 days straight and still fast and all.
