| Feature | Before | After | |--------|--------|-------| | Band locking | Hidden / limited | Full manual band selection | | VoLTE pass-through | Unstable | Native support for voice calls | | DNS over HTTPS | Not available | Privacy-enhanced browsing | | SMS storage | 50 messages | 200+ with export option |
Actual version numbers vary by region – check your carrier’s release notes.
The safest way to update is "Over The Air" (OTA), provided your router supports it.
If it says "No Update Available": This means you are either on the latest version approved by your specific carrier, or your carrier has stopped supporting this model. Do not force an update if one is not offered here, unless you are an advanced user solving a specific bug.
Once the update is complete, it is good practice to Factory Reset the router.
