Router Firmware upgrade

dub45 · 2003-12-13 15:19:35

Have a DSL 504 router and everything is working fine - I notice that there is a firmware upgrade available should I do it or leave well enough alone? Anyone any advice please?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Unless there is specific functionality that you need, or there are security holes that the upgrade fixes, then you don't need to upgrade your firmware.

on the other hand.. an upgrade is an upgrade. Can't hurt to be running the latest version.
