  7. Click browse and select your firmware file
  8. Click send, and wait a minute or 2. if it works your status light will turn green, you are supposed to get a page that says upload succeeded, I waited 5 minutes and it didn't happen. It still worked.
  9. Reset router by holding down reset button for 10 seconds, status light will go orange again but don't worry it is just rebooting.
  10. You should be good to go, open a new browser window and type 192.168.0.1 and you should get the Dlink login page. If this doesn't work, try again from step 1
