Joe, the technician, should check for a firmware update on the SOHO router. Firmware updates often include enhancements, bug fixes, and additional features, which might address the missing or hidden settings Joe is looking for. By ensuring the router’s firmware is up-to-date, Joe can access the latest security options and improve the overall functionality of the device.

This question is nonsense. This would mean that the supplire made the device with the instructions for the updated software before it even existed. I can understand if the instructions were for the old firmware, but this doesn't make sense. Is like if I buy an old windows 7 laptop with the instructions for windows 10 What sort of drugs do these people use?
