Firmware Restoration

Firmware Restoration is used on an ASUS Wireless Router after a 

failed firmware upgrade. This utility uploads a firmware file to the 

wireless router. The process takes about three to four minutes.

To launch rescue mode and use the Firmware Restoration 

utility:

1.  Unplug the wireless router from its power source.
.  While holding down the Reset button at the back of the 

wireless router, plug the wireless router into a power source. 

Release the Reset button when the Power LED at the front 

panel begins to flash slowly, which indicates that the wireless 

router is in rescue mode.

3.  Use the following to set up your TCP/IP settings:

IP address

: 19.168.1.x

Subnet mask

: 55.55.55.0

Launch rescue mode before using the Firmware Restoration 
utility.

The Firmware Restoration utility is not used to upgrade the 
firmware of a working ASUS Wireless Router. Normal firmware 
upgrades must be done through the web GUI. Refer to 

Upgrading the firmware
