How To Load Firmware (ver.2.0 or above) with ADSL2/2+ Support

ADSL2/2+ firmware is backward compatible with non-ADSL2/2+ connections. 
If your modem/router is running firmware ver. 2.0 or above it already 
has ADSL2/2+ support.

NOTE: Firmware upgrade requires certain steps. Please read 
this document prior to proceeding with the upgrade.

Disclaimer: 
- D-Link Australia does not guarantee that this firmware 
  is fully compatible with all Internet Providers' ADSL2/2+ DSLAMs.
- Please confirm with your Internet Provider the availability 
  of ADSL2/2+ services in your area.
- Upgrading the modem/router to the ADSL2/2+ firmware is not 
  reversible to firmware versions prior to 2.0 without returning the 
  product to D-Link Australia RMA Dept. ADSL2/2+ firmware is however 
  backward compatible with ADSL(1).
