exactly.... I think he meant firmware instead of drivers, just a poor choice of words. In fact flashing with new firmware may correct what was wrong with the router and is a good idea if the router has a lesser ver of firmware. Of course there is risk involved with flashing with new firmware. So I would do the reset first, then the firmware.

nope they are not, firmware upgrade definately would do the job if that was what was wrong and the router was not so broken as to accept a firmware flash.
