Upgrading The Firmware - NETGEAR DGN3500 User Manual

Upgrading the Firmware

The wireless modem router's firmware (routing software) is stored in flash memory. By
default, when you log in to your wireless modem router, it automatically checks the
NETGEAR website for new firmware and alerts you if there is a newer version.

Note: To turn off the automatic firmware check at log in, clear the Check
for Updated Firmware Upon Log-in check box on the Router
Upgrade screen.
