NETGEAR has made available a new firmware package developed for its DGN1000 wireless router, namely version 1.1.00.50, which resolves only a 32764 port issue and that can be applied regardless of the operating system installed on your computer.

In order to successfully upgrade your router to this release, simply get and extract the downloadable archive, log into the device’s administration page, go to Maintenance → Router Upgrade, and click the “Browse” button.

Now, navigate and select the newly-extracted “DGN1000_V1.1.00.50WW.img” file, click on the “Upload” button and wait for the DGN1000 unit to perform the upgrade.

When it comes to recommendations, since wireless connections can be easily interrupted, it would be best if you connected the router and the computer through an Ethernet cable; doing so will ensure a high connectivity strength.

In addition to that, bear in mind that during the installation you mustn’t remove the Ethernet cable, power off or restart the computer or the router, nor use the DGN1000’s buttons. Simply wait for the appropriate message that will anounce the process completion.

It’s also advisable that, after the update has successfully applied, you perform a configuration reset by pressing the Factory Defaults button located on the router’s rear panel (press and hold for about 10 seconds).

Therefore, download NETGEAR DGN1000 Router Firmware 1.1.00.50, take into account all aforementioned aspects, apply the latest firmware on your router, and constantly check with our website to be up to speed with the latest releases.
