Probally just have to upload the firmware via ftp to the server. You can get
the firmware from www.netgear.com. This is an embedded device, so who knows

That's the general idea, except this is to remedy the fact that windows (on
the computer sharing the printer) crashed everytime someone printed to the
shared printer. It was fun, really it was...
