I am not sure. It would be very helpful if you know the brand and model of your router. I suggest doing a google search on how to update drivers or firmware for your specific router using a Mac. You could also start a new email conversation with the specific question about updating your router in the subject line. There are lots of really smart folks here on this list. I am not one of those though. LOL! Seriously though, what is your brand and model? Did you purchase your router or did it come from your Internet Service Provider?
