Upgrading the Router Firmware
The routing software (also called firmware) of the WNR2200 router is stored in flash memory, and
can be upgraded as NETGEAR releases new software. Your router can download and install the
new software, or you can download upgrade files from the NETGEAR website and manually send
the upgrade file to the router using your browser.
Tip: To ensure that you are always using the latest router firmware, enable the Firmware
Upgrade Assistant feature so that the router will automatically detect a new version
of the firmware on the Internet and alert you to its availability.
