Today, we are going to discuss one such router, i.e., R8500 Nighthawk X8 router, which is getting extremely popular in the world. It is not just the router, which is making the news, but the firmware as well. The new version is 1.0.2.64 that is known for fixing the reboot issue at the time of dynamic QoS turning on.

There are a number of things that you need to do regarding Netgear Router setup. It is not just regarding the firmware because the aspects related to the firmware will be brought into the use later on, but initially, you need to get to the setup part.

The same goes for Netgear Extender setup because it is also a bit complicated and if you don’t know how to setup the Netgear Extender, then there will be a number of problems awaiting you. After that, you need to enter the page of the router administration using the right username and password. Once that is done, then you have to save all the settings that were changed from their default values because you will have to enter those again on your own after the upgrade. This may look easy while reading, but when it comes to implementing it, then it is a whole lot difficult.

You can easily set up Netgear wireless router by taking the help of an efficient tech support, which is quite easy to find these days. They will help you upgrade the firmware. Once that is done, then you can go to maintenance option, which will be followed by Router upgrade. After reaching that point, you need to browse and select the latest unzipped file (.img) and then, press the ‘upload’ button. This is going to permit the device to perform the installation.

You need to make sure that while doing Netgear Wi-Fi extender setup, you need to keep in mind that all the power cables and Ethernet cable is removed from the devices. Moreover, the internet browser is also not opened. There shouldn’t be anything open that can interrupt the installation and cause severe malfunctions to the router.
