How to update firmware ?
Posted: Tue May 22, 2018 1:15 pm
Hi guys, I need your help. I don't know much about routers and etc but I'm not an average pc user too but this time I dont know what to do. The problem is I dont know what to download to update my firmware version,what should i do next and I'm worried because I've got a tp-link router(it was gifted to me) but it always been with gargoyle software but up to today's standards, it's outdated. My antivirus told me I'm vulnerable to hacker attacks. I researched and found I have to update router to the 1.10.0 version. Sry for my english i can usually do better but I'm in a rush now.
AVAST PREMIER WI-FI SCANNER - "dnsmasq heap buffer vulnerability" etc.
So what should I download and do please tell me I'm afraid to do things on my own because I can end up with no internet connection and you know it would be a mess.
Here's some info about my router if you need more tell me but I think that would be enough. (I dont know how to upload photos.)
Status
Device Name:Gargoyle
Gargoyle Version:1.6.1
Model:TP-Link TL-WR740N/ND v4
Device Configuration:Gateway
Memory Usage:13.2MB / 28.5MB (46.2%)
Connections:105/4096
CPU Load Averages:0.00 / 0.01 / 0.05 (1/5/15 minutes)
P.S - I know how to make it to WI-FI and set my router seems pretty simple if something changed a lot after the new version i will ask you guys. Thanks in advance
