A ASUS announced a novo firmware for several of your router models. In this sense, it arrives with several cumulative security updates that try to correct several flaws pointed out by device users. The company recommends updating as soon as possible.

Due to the vulnerability that devices have without this firmware, the company recommends updating soon or at least limiting access to the WAN until they are finally protected. In addition, the brand recommends creating separate passwords for the administration page of each of the models.

These passwords must be at least eight characters long, combining numbers, symbols and capital letters. According to ASUS, the idea is to avoid using the same chosen words for many services or devices. Now, check out which routers were affected:
