updating firmware on arris nvg510

What happens when I update the firmware on my nvg510 by pushing and holding reset button ? Will I have to reset my password or my computer ?

If you reset the gateway any settings you made to the gateway will be lost.  Nothing else is changed.

 

But resetting the gateway to force a firmware update isn't really necessary.  ATT pushes firmware updates whether you want them or not.  So you should already have the latest firmware in your gateway.

I'm having problems with "Access Denied."   My router ( Motorola NVG510) will not allow me to visit a few websites i.e.  ebay or US post office.  I would like to download the latest firmware myself.  Yes I read that it's done automatically but I suspect that the inquiry from HQ check the firmware version and reaches the conclusion that all is well, but it's not.  Please help!

If certain sites can't be accessed I wouldn't blame the gateway firmware.  I would suspect possible browser cache problems or DNS problems.  Try clearing your browser cache or just try using a different browser for experimentation and comparison.  To use a different DNS set that from your computer's network settings.  Try, for example, OpenDNS (208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220) or google DNS (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4).

Thanks for your reply.

I tried 3 different computers, same issues.  Since I first posted my request eBay has returned but other websites have stopped working.   I fired up my Verizon Jetpack (hotspot) connected to my laptop and all was good.

I will try using a different DNS number, hopefully that will help.  I bought a new router, arrived yesterday, anxious to try it out.

Software version 9.0.6h2d45

Thanks again for your help!

When do we get a firmware update for this router?

I understand 9.0.6h2d45 is the latest version of the firmware, but I have been using it now for a few years.

 

I sure there must be some fixes available for it, and I am sure it is vulnerable to the WPA2 Krak.

Would be nice to have a warm and fuzzy feeling about my internet connection.

 

Thanks.
