The 2 items showing are ATHEROS AR9285 802.11 b/g/n Wi Fi Adapter or REALTEK P CLE GBE FAMILY CONTROLLER. I don't know which I should choose as both don't look like the right option to me. I get the same message after choosing either of them; COULD NOT GET SYSTEM INFORMATION CORRECTLY. PLEASE EXIT UPGRAGE UTILITY AND EXECUTE Rm.Drv.exe, WHICH LOCATED IN THE SAME DIRECTORY WITH UPGRADE UTILITY, THEN RUN UPGRAGE UTILITY AGAIN. I cannot get further than this point. Any suggestions on how to go further? Thanks very much. kind regards, Onnwah Dear JJ,

I know some people have mentioned trying it in 'Compatibility Mode' but if you have another computer running Windows XP use that instead. John,

Can I just say I tried in vain three times and was going to give up (from O2 box to Sky Netgear-my ISP is O2) but on the third attempt it worked!! I've been wanting to flash the router all week but after reading the many warnings were very nervous and now feel a sense of achievement as it's something I've never attempted before :) Many thanks again James Many thanks James for all your valuable help on this.

Any ideas? Derek Hi James

I believe that someone on the 'skyuser' forums managed to use this guide and found a way to flash the firmware on your router (by changing the firmware filename during the upgrade process.) More info can be found here: http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/technical-discussion/20880-dg934-hacked-running-official-netgear-firmware.html#post132860 Hey Darryl,
