What is the timing to using "*.rst" file to upgrade your router? Once you failed to upgrade your router using "*.ALL" firmware file (normally use) several times, then we suggest you use "*.RST" firmware file to do the upgrade. 2. After upgrade the router successfully, you can make sure the upgraded firmware version is the one listed above from the router's web user interface. 3. Do not attempt to restore old settings from a configuration backup file downloaded from previous firmware version. 4.
