Update Firmware on NETGEAR Router:

Netgear sends new updates from time to time to enhance the performance of the router device. This also involves an introduction to better security features.

To make sure that the new features are present on your router or not, you need to know if your device running on the latest firmware or not. The easiest method to update the firmware of your Netgear router is with the help of a Nighthawk app.

Steps to Update the Firmware of Netgear Router Using an Internet Browser

If you want to update the firmware of your router using an internet browser, then these are the instructions that you need to follow.

Step 1: Connect your computer to the router using an ethernet wire.
