Issues Resolved:

- If users set outbound firewall access rules to Deny, then create an Internet access policy to permit a specific website, the access rule does not work and other websites are also permitted. (CSCun04513
- If users enable Email settings, set Authentication with SMTP Server to Login and enter a secondary email address to which to send logs, email is not sent to the secondary address provided. (CSCum76056)
- STP does not work accurately with Link Aggregation Groups (LAG). For example, if ports 1 and 2 are included in a LAG, the STP root bridge is wrong after the link status changes for port 1. (CSCum50055)
- The WDS links is not up if the peer MAC address format is incorrect. For example, users enter 001122334455 instead of 00:11:22:33:44:55. (CSCum59546)
- When the syslogs reach 1000, the device does not email logs to users. (CSCum72888)
- VLAN ID 80 does not work. (CSCum31734)
- If the PPTP tunnel is established and users create a new VLAN, the PPTP clients are offline and cannot connect again. (CSCum72910)

About Router Firmware:

Before you consider downloading this firmware, go to the system information page of the router and make sure that the currently installed version isn’t either newer or matching this release.

Due to the large variety of router models and different methods for upgrading the device, it is highly recommended that you read and, above all, understand the installation steps before you apply the new firmware, even if you are a power user.

In theory, these steps shouldn’t be much of a hassle for anyone, because manufacturers try to make them as easy as possible, even if they don’t always succeed. Basically, you must upload the new firmware to the router through its administration page and allow it to upgrade.

If you install a new version, you can expect increased security levels, different vulnerability issues to be resolved, improved overall performance and transfer speeds, enhanced compatibility with other devices, added support for newly developed technologies, as well as several other changes.

If you’re looking for certain safety measures, remember that it would be best if you perform the upload using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection, which can be interrupted easily. Also, make sure you don’t power off the router or use its buttons during the installation, if you wish avoid any malfunctions.

If this firmware meets your current needs, get the desired version and apply it to your router unit; if not, check with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss the update that will improve your device.
