I updated my DNS-321 using Alt-F-1.0-DNS-321-rev-Ax.bin, downloaded from Sourceforge.  After doing this, the firmware page says

The box is currently in TryIt mode running Alt-F 1.0-2017-07-13 with kernel 4.4.45, and is flashed with "Alt-F-1.0-2017-07-13, initrd" and kernel "Alt-F-1.0-2017-07-13, kernel 4.4".

How do I upgrade to 4.4.86?

Installing the kernel-modules-4.4.45 package actually installs 4.4.86.

Did you read and follow those instructions?

You have not flashed it, you are in "TryIt mode", so you have hit the Special Reboot button; you can now repeat the procedure again and this time press the FlashIt button (it was disabled the first time). That is expected and necessary on the DNS-321/323 and is explained in bold blue in the Firmware Upgrade webUI.
