To update or not?

Post by Grendel99 »

Hi Everyone,
I would like some advice. I have a TP-Link 1043ND running 1.3.16. I'm having no problems with it, everything works fine and does what I want. Should I upgrade to the newest firmware? I'm a little bit nervous about upgrading because of issues that other users have had with this router. Is there any real benefit in upgrading, regarding performance or other issues?

I have same router running latest version with no issues, if the changes listed aren't something you want and/or need though, I would suggest sticking with what works for you.

I think there is a intermittent dma issue with this router that won't be fixed until the next firmware release, most likely named 1.4.3. I'd plan on updating to the next one if you are currently hesitant.
WRT54GL v1.1
Gargoyle 1.4.7
