Firmware-update: FRITZ!Box 7590 8.00

De AVM Fritz!Box 7590 is een vdsl2/adsl2+-modem, gigabitrouter, accesspoint tot en met 802.11ac en dect-basestation voor maximaal zes handsets in één. Verder beschikt het apparaat over twee usb 3.0-aansluitingen, waarmee een printer of externe opslagcapaciteit op het netwerk kan worden gedeeld. Terugkeren naar de oorspronkelijke firmware is altijd mogelijk; zorg dus voor een back-up. Bijwerken van de firmware kan vanuit de gebruikersinterface zelf, maar los downloaden kan ook. AVM had eerder al de firmware van de AX-versie een update gegeven met Fritz!OS 8.00, nu is deze ook voor de FRITZ!Box 7590 beschikbaar gekomen. Hieronder is te vinden wat er allemaal veranderd is.
