How can I check if I’m on the latest firmware?

You compare the firmware version you're on to the latest released firmware on the support site.

Visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number (your footer says RAX40) and check the documentation for your hardware.

That page will also have any software, firmware and drivers for your device, if they exist.

Check the section in the manual on updating the firmware.

Or just read this:

How do I manually upgrade firmware to my NETGEAR router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support

This is probably the most reliable, and safest, way to do it. But if that seems daunting follow the instructions for getting the thing to update itself.
