Model: TL-WR940N  
Hardware Version: V6
Firmware Version: 3.18.1

I've had this router for a couple years.  I jst read in an ASUS email that I should harden my router.  The first thing it tells me to do is to donwload latest firmware.

how do I find out what and where the latest firmware is?

Log into your router, then go to status, look at the firmware build. It is formatted like a date, and once you find that out visit our official website to compare the builds to see if they are the same.

 

 

Here is where you can find the firmware releases for the TL-WR940N US region: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/download/tl-wr940n/#Firmware

 

If your build is older then the one listed on our site, here is a FAQ on how to upgrade it: https://www.tp-link.com/us/support/faq/688/
