A router firmware update checklist matches the sticker model, installs only the maker's file, and leaves the router powered until it finishes.
People flash a random file, pull the cord when the lights blink, and end up with a brick.
Why This Happens

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do I download firmware?
From the router maker's support page for your exact model. This router firmware update checklist is not a reason to install unofficial files.
What if the lights look strange?
Wait. Unplugging during an update is a common way to break a router. Use the maker's recovery steps only if it never comes back.
Should I change the admin password?
Yes, if it is still the default on the sticker. Do that before or as part of the update, and store it in a password manager.
Will this disconnect the house?
Plan on it. Start when you can be without internet until the status page says the update finished.
