Hi All;
I've briefly perused the forums and haven't found an overly similar query...
I'm seeking recommendations to remotely upgrade router firmware. Two options currently present themselves to me as viable options,
1) log directly into the router remotely via a router-hosted OpenVPN connection
2) log into the router via a machine on the local network using Team Viewer
Both obviously rely on the router's internet access to perform this function. Are there any major benefits / limitations of either approach? Is there another option available (without physically be present) that might be more suitable?
For context, the router is a RT-AC68U running Asuswrt-Merlin 384.15 (8-Feb-2020).
Is there any reason why I couldn't/shouldn't jump to the latest, or should I be best undertaking several incremental upgrades, say 6-12 months at a time.
Happy to hear your thoughts. Thanks.
