Backup the routers configuration first:

Manually update FW on the router if this isn't seen on the routers web page: Recommended

NOTE:  A factory reset and setup from scratch maybe needed if problems are encountered after applying FW updates:

NOTE: Recommend setting the default DHCP IP address pool range to the following after applying and a factory reset: 192.168.#.100 to 192.168.#.200.

 

NOTE: Its recommended to install a USB laptop cooler under the router for 24/4 cooling. Helps keep the router cool and helps avoid heat damage to the electronics.

This unfortunately doesn’t allow WPA3 Personal and WPA2 Personal protocols to coexist on the network. Option for one or the other, not mixed even though documentation shows choices that this router firmware doesn’t provide. NG ?
