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 to 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.
It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
Previously, we looked at how to configure different ASUS routers designed for 100-Mbit networks. It was mentioned that the firmware can be replaced, but this action is fraught with risk. If the user nevertheless decides to install an alternative version of the software on the ASUS router, we recommend that you first try the firmware “from Oleg”. Also, here we will look at how the setup occurs.
What models of ASUS routers are equipped with Oleg’s firmware? The answer is very easy to find. Just go to the website oleg.wl500g.info, scroll down the page, click on the last link “firmwares” to see the list:
Official website of firmware “from Oleg”
Immediately download the file for the router model you are interested in (for example, WL500g), the main thing is not to confuse the “500gp” revision with the “500gp-V2”. Then you unpack the archive to your desktop, and you see one file with the extension *.trx.
Firmware for “earlier” models (for example, 500g or 300) are located in the penultimate folder.
Note: if you have a router of a different model (or even a different revision), installation will not be possible.
Firmware installation
Preparing the router
Before setting up your Asus router, you will install new firmware. To install it, you need to go to the web interface. But the router may have already been set up by someone. Therefore, first, we’ll do a reset using the reset button to return the “factory” values, including the administrator password.
reset button
The router must be turned on, at least 2 minutes must pass after turning on, then you press reset. You need to hold the button for 10 seconds, and the settings will return to the correct values.
Computer connection
The patch cord must connect any LAN port of the router to the network interface of the computer. But, do not rush to turn on the router’s power supply: first check whether the network card is configured correctly. We recommend setting it up like this:
"Properties" of the connection
You can view the settings in the connection “Status” -> “Properties” -> “TCP/IP Internet Protocol” -> “Properties”.
Lastly, you need to turn on the router’s power supply and send the computer to reboot.
Installing new firmware
We know that the default IP address of the ASUS router is 192.168.1.1. Also, to enter the web interface you will need a password and login (this is the admin pair).
You need to open any browser, in its address bar - type the IP address of the router, press “Enter”. Provide login and password. And go to the web interface (to the automatic configuration offer, answer “No” or “Cancel”).
A Wi-Fi router produced by ASUS can be equipped with one of the following interface options:
Interface: option 1
Interface: option 2
In the first case, go to the “System Setup” -> “Firmware Upgrade” tab. In the second, go to the “Advanced settings” tab -> “Administration”, to the “Firmware update” tab.
Update: Interface 1
Update: Interface 2
In the first case, click “Browse”, find the *.trx file, and confirm your choice. The installation will begin after clicking “Upload”. In the second, we also select the file. Firmware installation starts by clicking the “Submit” button.
Firmware installation
After the firmware process starts, you need to wait for completion. You cannot close the browser or turn off the router. If you nevertheless changed the IP address of this router, after installing the firmware and rebooting, you will have to look for it at the same address, and not at 192.168.1.1.
Note: if there is a power failure on one of the devices (router, computer), the firmware installation will not be performed. After which, you will have to restore the router using “disaster recovery”.
Here we discussed in detail how to flash an ASUS router. Now, we will look at setting up a router with new firmware.
Setting up a router with firmware “from Oleg”
Internet connection
We will assume that all the necessary cable connections have been made, the router is turned on, and the computer is rebooted (and the network card has received its IP address). Then, from any browser you can access the new web interface. Login to the ASUS router is carried out with the same login/password that was before the flashing.
We will refuse automatic configuration:
Login to the web interface
And we will see the first tab of the graphical interface:
Main tab
To configure the connection, you need the “IP Config” -> “WAN-LAN” tab:
Connection setup (DHCP option)
If we set up a connection “under DHCP”, you won’t need to change anything additional on this tab. Just set the MAC address value you need (for example, as indicated on the bottom side of the router case, or another). Now – go to the bottom of the page, click “Finish”:
Saving connection settings
All that remains is to agree with the reboot:
After which, the settings will be saved, the router will reboot, and the connection will appear automatically. Then, you can check the connection (by going to the “Status & Log” -> “Status” tab):
Device status
We see that the connection is currently connected (“Connected”). And the figure below will help you install and configure the WiFi connection of the ASUS router as a VPN client. Happy setup!
Connection setup (PPTP option)
Connection setup (PPTP option), continued
Explanation: “User Name” – subscriber name, “Password” – password value (see contract), “No Encryption” – required to be set, “PPTP/L2TP (VPN) Server” – name or address of the VPN server (see contract ).
About setting the MAC address
It was noticed that after flashing the router, the MAC address of its WAN port always takes the value “00-90-4C-C0-00-00”. In principle, if there are no other ASUS routers nearby that are equipped with the same firmware, the MAC address can be left as it is. But still, it is recommended to install it “explicitly” (as indicated at the bottom of the case). In fact, you can set other numbers as the MAC address, which will be useful if your provider checks the MAC value (when there is a “binding” to the hardware address).
Wireless network and its setup
The ASUS WiFi router with firmware “from Oleg” will allow you to enable the built-in access point and set the necessary parameters (network name, password, encryption algorithm) on one tab. It's called "Wireless" -> "Interface":
Basic Wi-Fi settings
After you set the network name (SSID), encryption mode and password (as in the figure), just click the “Finish” button. The router will reboot, after which the Wi-Fi network will begin to function. You can search for this network from any gadget - it has already appeared!
We have not considered how to configure the “Channel” parameter. This is the channel number (from 1st to 12th), in this case, the router will select it automatically. And in the “Wireless Mode” line, the “fastest” mode is “Auto” (also called “Mixed”). Note that the “N only” mode is not provided here.
There is another tab containing Wi-Fi settings. Here you can hide the network name. Also, the user can reduce the power of the radio transmitter (whether this is necessary or not depends on how to install the ASUS WiFi router in the apartment). Sometimes the network works better at reduced power due to less influence of reflected waves. To set these settings, go to the “Advanced” tab:
To “hide” the name, you need to set the “Yes” dot in the “Hide SSID” line. Remember that the settings take effect only after clicking “Finish”. Happy routing!
Additionally
IPTV
How to connect an ASUS WiFi router to a computer to watch digital TV? With the firmware “from Oleg”, it will be enough to enable IPTV traffic (multicast packets will go to the local wired network and to the Wi-Fi network). Open the “IP Config” -> “Route” tab in the web interface:
Enabling multicast
Set the top two checkboxes to “Yes” and apply the settings. After which, any multicast packet is no longer blocked on a wired (and wireless) local network.
In addition, in the additional Wi-Fi settings (“Wireless” -> “Advanced”), multicast traffic can be forcibly limited:
Additional Wi-Fi settings
Instead of “Auto”, you need to select a value at which watching TV over Wi-Fi will not interfere with other users (IPTV should not occupy all Wi-Fi traffic). Select the value, gradually reducing it (available here: 36 Mbit/s, 18 Mbit/s, etc.).
Advantages of alternative firmware
After installing the firmware “from Oleg”, you will notice the following. Saving values to the device memory now takes exactly 20 seconds. All options work as they should, without interfering with each other. The ASUS router does not work after flashing for only one reason: if the installation process was not completed completely. The choice of whether to install or not is left up to the user.
WIVE-NG-RTNL- this is a fast and easy firmware for routers on a chip Ralink RT305*. Why at all? ASUS reflash, you ask? Primarily to increase access speed. Let me give you an example - a router ASUS RT-N10 C1. By PPPoE with standard firmware 2.0.3.1
The speed on a 100 megabit tariff did not rise above 30-35 megabits. After the firmware RT-N10 C1 on Wive-NG-RTNL speed has increased up to 70 megabits- i.e. 2 times. Agree, not bad.
WITH Wive-NG-RTNL The following router models are compatible ASUS: RT-N10+, RT-N10 C1, RT-N10 B1, Asus RT-N13U,RT-N13U Rev.B1, RTG-32 rev.B1.
Attention!
1. On a simple RT-N10, the Wive-NG-RTNL firmware will not start - you must use DD-WRT for it.
2. You do all manipulations with the device and its software at your own peril and risk. Site Administration The site administration is not responsible for damage to your devices.
Download the firmware itself from here: . For our router you need to download a file called Wive_WR-150N-1T1R.*******.bin.zip
and unpack it.
We also need a program Firmware Restoration
— it is installed along with a package of utilities for the router, which can be downloaded from the website ASUS. For RT-N10 C1- link .
On the computer, in the properties of the Internet Protocol TCP/IP, you need to register a static address:
IP address — 192.168.1.2
mask — 255.255.255.0
Gateway — 192.168.1.1
Be sure to disable the antivirus and firewall on your computer and run the program Firmware Restoration
. Click the Browse button and select the file with the firmware.
Next, turn off the power to the router, press and hold the reset button on the back panel of the device and turn on the router. We wait 10-15 seconds and release the button. Then wait another 20 seconds and press the button Download in a programme Firmware Restoration.
We are waiting for the program to flash our RT-N10 C1 and will reboot it. After this, press the button Close.
The router's address on the network will remain 192.168.1.1 We enter this address in the browser and receive a login and password request. Enter your login Admin and password Admin. Must be capitalized.
