### Obtaining firmware images
Firmware images can be downloaded directly from Netgear's FTP servers.
For the Netgear EX2700 for example, download
ftp://updates1.netgear.com/ex2700/ww/fileinfo.txt. At the top there
should be an entry like this:
```
[Major1]
file=EX2700-V1.0.1.8.img
...
```
The download link for the latest firmware image for this device is thus:
ftp://updates1.netgear.com/ex2700/ww/EX2700-V1.0.1.8.img. Substitute
`ex2700` for your device (`wndr4300`, `wndr3700`, `r6100`, etc.). If
neccessary, substitute `ww` (world-wide) for a specific region.
