    Have you definitely unzipped the new firmware file to a different directory on your hard drive? (it will probably have exactly the same file name as before).

    You should definitely get to this stage whether you are trying to load a genuine Voyager firmware update file or a hacked firmware file.

    connect the modem to your PC via ethernet and ensure the dsl line is connected

    load up your web browser and type in http://192.168.1.1 to access the control panel

    Select the QUICK START menu, and then select disconnect

    A screen now loads up to enter your own ISP username and password

    After entering your details click connect

    No point until the firmware has been updated.
