Some THG3000 variants (especially retail versions) allow manual updates.
Arcadyan does not generally provide public firmware. You must go through your ISP.
| HW version | Typical latest firmware | Notes |
|------------|------------------------|-------|
| 1.0 | THG3000_1.0_XX.XX.X | Older, less frequent updates |
| 1.1 | THG3000_1.1_XX.XX.X | Still common |
| 2.0 | THG3000_2.0_XX.XX.X | Better performance, newer features |
Your ISP may use different version numbering.
Access the web interface at 192.168.0.1 (default credentials are on the sticker – change them immediately).
Go to Information → Device to see Software Version (e.g., THG3000_5.00.05).
Firmware is the permanent, low-level software programmed into the read-only memory of your THG3000 router. Unlike standard software applications you install on a PC, firmware operates at the hardware level. It is the operating system of your router.
The THG3000 model typically features:
The firmware orchestrates every single function: routing IP traffic, managing Wi-Fi channels, enforcing firewall rules, handling DNS requests, and communicating with your Internet Service Provider’s (ISP) central office.
Place your second router in the THG3000’s DMZ and disable its Wi-Fi radios. This avoids double NAT but doesn’t fix ISP-side latency issues.
Cause: Known as the "Puma 7 lag" – often worsened by specific firmware versions. Solution:
