   check the stickers on your router... like with motherboard in computers, there   
   are different revisions... if your router is a version 1, then i'd use that   
   firmware... if your router is a version 2, then that...

   correct...

   what was the firmware that was on it before you updated it last time? but   
   really, though, i think it has to do with the version of the router as to   
   which version of the firmware you can put on it...

   not a problem... i've seen similar before... that's why i said to look at the   
   stickers and see if you can find the router's version... it made a difference,   
   in my case, of whether or not i had a router or a brick ;)
