Before You Start

• Confirm your exact hardware version (e.g., HG532n v1, v2, or v3). Wrong firmware can brick your router.
• Only download firmware from Huawei’s official support site or your Internet Service Provider (ISP) (e.g., TalkTalk, Telstra, etc.), as many ISPs customize the firmware.
• Back up your router settings if possible (rare on this model).
• Use a wired Ethernet connection – do not update over Wi-Fi.
