Dovado PRO AC Router Firmware 9.0.1 Description

New Layout Features:

- Swedish added as language (in addition to English) throughout the menu, and not just Setup Wizard.

New WiFi Features:

- Universal Access Routers (PRO AC & TINY AC) now contain Wireless Repeater / Range Extender functionality. They can repeat/extend on both 2.4 and 5 GHz frequency bands at the same time, regardless if the sources are two separate networks. Only one source network however can provide Ethernet connectivity to devices connected on the LAN port(s). Ideally, it's great for boosting coverage within a home without adding an extra network behind the one you currently have.
- Guest WiFi Support, offering a secondary isolated wireless network, with a separate passphrase for your guests.
- Possible to print your WiFi settings, the page includes the WiFi SSID, passphrase and QR-code (barcode app is needed to scan the QR-code in your phone)
- Multiple SpotBoost profiles with automatic handover between profiles; handy when switching locations as router will search for previously saved SpotBoost profiles.
- Reset button at the back of the router can also be configured to act as a WPS button for quick wireless passphrase pairing. No need to type in a key manually. (PRO AC)

New Networking Features:

- VLAN support on the Ethernet WAN link.
- TINY AC can now convert its Gigabit Ethernet WAN port into a secondary LAN port. (Tiny AC)
- No need to restart the router after applying Port Forwarding changes.
- Force DNS; it is possible to redirect all DNS requests to the router.
- Remote Access login port can now be specified.
- The host page has been updated to show if clients are connected to the 2.4/5 Ghz WiFi or LAN Ports. The router will also identify if you have any Dovado devices on your network (handy for Wireless Repeater/Range Extender management).

About Router Firmware:

Before you consider downloading this firmware, go to the system information page of the router and make sure that the currently installed version isn’t either newer or matching this release.

Due to the large variety of router models and different methods for upgrading the device, it is highly recommended that you read and, above all, understand the installation steps before you apply the new firmware, even if you are a power user.

In theory, these steps shouldn’t be much of a hassle for anyone, because manufacturers try to make them as easy as possible, even if they don’t always succeed. Basically, you must upload the new firmware to the router through its administration page and allow it to upgrade.

If you install a new version, you can expect increased security levels, different vulnerability issues to be resolved, improved overall performance and transfer speeds, enhanced compatibility with other devices, added support for newly developed technologies, as well as several other changes.

If you’re looking for certain safety measures, remember that it would be best if you perform the upload using an Ethernet cable rather than a wireless connection, which can be interrupted easily. Also, make sure you don’t power off the router or use its buttons during the installation, if you wish avoid any malfunctions.

If this firmware meets your current needs, get the desired version and apply it to your router unit; if not, check with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss the update that will improve your device.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
