Title: Firmware Update Question
Post by: awatt on August 16, 2009, 09:40:54 AM

Hi All,

So I'm currently running Firmware version 1.11 I tried using version 1.21 and had slower speeds browsing and connecting. My question is should I take the risk and bump up to the 1.32 version, or should I stay with what I have?

If using 1.21 turn off DNS relay then reboot your PC.

If you do upgrade to any of the 1.3x firmware you can not go back to 1.2x or lower.

Right. I'm using 1.11 now but do you think it's worth taking the gamble that I won't be able to go back to prior versions? 1.11 seems to be the most stable that I've tried so far.

If it does what you want it to do: don't upgrade. If you really need the extra features, try it (one way!0

You can downgrade from any firmware except 1.3x.
