Today, NETGEAR has made available a new firmware package compatible with several of its router models, namely version 1.1.0.32, which updates the GUI strings and fixes a security bug that was present with earlier releases.

In order to be clear about the supported devices, the present firmware is suitable for NETGEAR’s JNR1010v2, JWNR2000v5, JWNR2010v5, WNR614, WNR618, WNR1000v4, WNR2020, and WNR2020v2 wireless units.

When it comes to installing this update, first of all, you should write down all settings that have been changed from the default values, and establish a wired connection between your router and a computer (wireless technology tends to disconnect randomly).

If these two aspects are met, save and unzip the downloadable archive, log into the unit’s administration page (username and password should be requested), and go to Advanced > Administration > Firmware Upgrade.

Afterwards, just hit “Browse,” navigate and select the newly extracted .img file, click the Upload button, and wait patiently as the router prepares and installs the 1.1.0.32 firmware version.

However, bear in mind that, during the upgrade, you mustn’t remove the Ethernet/power cable from neither devices, shut down or reboot your computer/router, or interrupt the installation in any way. Doing so might lead to various malfunctions or even render the wireless unit unusable.

That being said, from the links below, follow the one that best describes your router model, apply the new firmware, and constantly check our website to be aware when a newer version is available for your device.
