Re: [Info] Flush out the NVRAM Before you Re-Flash Your Router U
Actually you should all put the wireless router, cable modem, switches, wireless access points, print servers on timers to shutdown at night where your sleeping. This way it can cool off thus save energy too. My cable modem works very hard I also reset that one flush out the NVRAM once every 6 months. After that it performs faster.
I control everything with one power surge strip, I should put everything on a timer. Flush out all the switches too. Say like 4am to 9am (5 hrs) shutdown.
Again the above is good when you have flashed the router so many times with different firmware. I just do this to make sure all the crap in NVRAM is gone. I didn't do it last time could explain why the N wasn't working. I'll do it with 1.31 firmware. It's a lot of work to bring down the network. |
