The routing software of the WPN824 router is stored in FLASH memory, and can be upgraded as
new software is released by NETGEAR. Upgrade files can be downloaded from the NETGEAR
Web site. If the upgrade file is compressed (.ZIP file), you must first extract the file before sending
it to the router. The upgrade file can be sent to the router using your browser.
Note: The Web browser used to upload new firmware into the WPN824 router must support HTTP
uploads. NETGEAR recommends using Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator 3.0 or
above.
From the Main Menu of the browser interface, under the Maintenance heading, select the Router
Upgrade link display the menu shown below.

1. Download and unzip (if the download file is a .zip file) the new software file from NETGEAR.
2. In the Router Upgrade menu, click the Browse button and browse to the location of the
upgrade file
3. Click Upload.
Note: When uploading software to the WPN824 router, it is important not to interrupt the Web
browser by closing the window, clicking a link, or loading a new page. If the browser is
interrupted, it may corrupt the software. When the upload is complete, your router will
automatically restart. The upgrade process will typically take about one minute.
In some cases, you may need to reconfigure the router after upgrading.
