Firmware Upgrade

Use Firmware Upgrade to upgrade firmware of HomePlug AV. After upgrading the

firmware, HomePlug AV will still retain the same Private Network Name and MAC

address settings. Before you proceed with the upgrade, you need to have both the

configuration file (PIB extension) and the firmware file (NVM extension). You can

download upgrade files from the product’s Web site.
