Firmware version 3.10B05 released. This fixed the DNSmasq security vulnerability.
Note there are 2 firmware files. You must upgrade to the "middle" file first, and then to v3.10B05.
Firmware - ftp://FTP2.DLINK.COM/PRODUCTS/DIR-842/REVC/DIR-842_REVC_FIRMWARE_v3.10B05.zip (ftp://FTP2.DLINK.COM/PRODUCTS/DIR-842/REVC/DIR-842_REVC_FIRMWARE_v3.10B05.zip)

Firmware version 3.10B05 released. This fixed the DNSmasq security vulnerability.
Note there are 2 firmware files. You must upgrade to the "middle" file first, and then to v1.10B05.
==============================================================================================
Would you help that I missed to upgrade the "middle" file first and directly upgrade to 3.10B05. How can I reset to 3.02 or any suggestions to do now? Thanks.

I am not sure if this wrong upgrade caused the network speed slow down greatly. I got rather good speed before upgrade, but now the speed is not acceptable. can someone help?

- By-pass the main host router and check internet connection by connecting a wired LAN PC directly to the ISP modem to verify connection access and ISP speeds. Power OFF the ISP modem and router for 1 minute then power ON the ISP modem. Then power ON the router.

By-pass the main host router and check internet connection by connecting a wired LAN PC directly to the ISP modem to verify connection access and ISP speeds. Power OFF the ISP modem and router for 1 minute then power ON the ISP modem. Then power ON the router. my NB has no LAN port hence I can only use wireless to connect to the router.
