Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 1.5.1 Build 20251202 rel.60030(5553)

Hello,

 

I stream on Twitch and back in November, I started having issues with my stream disconnecting and reconnecting randomly throughout the night. I have a CAT 6 Ethernet cable and when I connect to the modem, my Twitch Bandwidth Test results are great, but when I connect to the router, my results are abysmal. So I've been going over options in the router, trying to figure out what is causing the issue. In the router settings, it says my hardware version is v1.0 but on the back of my equipment, the label says 1.6. I've only ever updated the firmware using the online management interface, but it seems that the wrong firmware has been loaded? Am I missing something glaring? Should I download the most recent 1.6 firmware and use that instead? I just don't understand why the label on the router says one thing but the hardware version in the management site says another.

  @runner1226 They consider all 1.x to be the same family.  My router is a 1.6 hardware version but uses 1.0 firmware.  Nothing to worry about.  You can use the download on the 1.6 page, but it will turn out to be the exact same thing that is posted on the 1.0 page.  Same version, same build number.
