Firmware Upgrade Order
« on: October 06, 2008, 04:40:52 PM »

Sorry if this has been asked already, I've searched but have not found my question.

If I have firmware 1.11, can I jump up directly to 1.13? Or must I install 1.12, THEN 1.13?

Unless the Readme - Install notes state otherwise, you can install the firmware you want.  So, it seems that you might be able to go directly to 1.13.

Please note:  Do not perform the update on the wireless network.  Connect a network cable to the router and disconnect from the wireless network.  Wireless networking can be turned off, at the wrong time, during the update.

Addendum:

It seems that the SecureSpot feature in firmware 1.12 does not seem to be included in version 1.13.  Can anyone confirm this?

I just completely discovered the "correct" firmware upgrade order.  If you want / need the SecureSpot "system," you must upgrade to 1.12 and then do 1.13 (from the general site or the firmware check in the router.)

Please note that the "Canadian" version of the 1.13 firmware will remove SecureSpot.
