The current firmware version is 11.17.0-50.

If the console already has CFW

Before the console can be updated, make sure Luma3DS is on the most recent version. To check its version, hold Select while turning on the console.

If your Luma3DS version is... Then...
10.2.1 and newer You can update to 11.17.0 without problems.
8.0 - 10.2 You must first update following the Restoring / Updating CFW guide. Otherwise an error screen will appear.
7.1 boot9strap must be updated first, or newer versions of Luma3DS will not work. Follow the guide at Updating B9S.
7.0.5 and older Your console must first be upgraded from arm9loaderhax to boot9strap. Follow the guide at A9LH to B9S.

If the console does not yet have CFW

There is currently no free exploit for Old 3DS consoles.

New 3DS EUR/JPN consoles can use super-skaterhax. New 3DS USA consoles must wait for the otherapp payload to be updated.

Other exploits are available at 3DS:Alternate Exploits. Most of these depend on having certain games or a second console with custom firmware.

Any console on any version can be hacked with ntrboot, but this requires a compatible DS flashcart.
