Ensuring the router works correctly with modern internet service provider configurations. Step 1: Download the Correct Firmware

If the file is in a .zip format, extract it to your desktop so the .bin file is ready. Step 2: Access the Router Admin Panel

💡 Always keep a record of your ISP's PPPoE username and password in case you need to re-enter your connection details manually after an update.

If the default "admin" password doesn't work, you may need to reset the router by holding the "Reset" button on the back for 10 seconds.

Click to save your current settings to your computer. Step 4: Perform the Software Update Once you are logged in and backed up, follow these steps: Go to the Maintenance tab in the top or side menu. Select Device and then click on Firmware Upgrade . Click the Browse or Choose File button. Select the .bin firmware file you downloaded in Step 1. Click Upgrade .

⚠️ Do not turn off the router or close the browser during this process. The router will usually reboot automatically once the update is complete. This may take 3 to 5 minutes. Step 5: Verify the Update

Visit the official Huawei Support website or your ISP’s technical portal.

Before starting, you must ensure you have the correct file. Using the wrong firmware version can "brick" your router, making it unusable.
