firmware you must have installed this software on the PC you wish to use for this purpose. Install the utility by
clicking the file titled setup.exe located on the Installation CD-ROM. It will be installed automatically. It is
recommended that the PC be directly connected to the Router using a crossed cable, however you may upgrade it
through the LAN from a remote host.
You also need to download the latest firmware version file from the D-Link web site to the PC on which you will
use the Upgrade Utility. Instructions for downloading the firmware are located on the web site at
www.dlink.com .
To launch the DSL-500 Firmware Upgrade Utility, click on the icon. Allow a few moments for the software to
discover the Router on the network. After the discovery phase the following window will appear. You will see
all the DSL-500 Routers on your network. You can identify individual devices by either its IP address or its
MAC address. Select the device you wish to upgrade by double clicking on it.
When you select a Router to upgrade you will be prompted for a password. The default password is admin. If
