BFSR41 V2.1 ISSUES

Evening all,
My sister in law has small home network 3 computers. She recently had some
connection problems with her network and decided instead of calling me she
hit the resent switch on the router. This caused more problems.
My main issue now is I am trying to upgrade the firmware on her linksys
router and half way thru the upgrade it fails. I have tried many different
ways to update the firmware and was wondering if anyone had any
suggestions.

There are only two ways to update the firmware: use the on-board flash
program on the Help tab, or use the flash program supplied with the
update. Are you sure that the update applies to the router? Otherwise,
try resetting the router by removing the power adapter, pressing the
reset button while attaching the power adapter, and continue holding the
reset for five or so seconds after powering.

Just my experience.
