INTERNET ACCESS ROUTER

Appendix D: Software Download

D.1 Introduction

The download process erases the program code in the device and
automatically resets the device. The Internet Access Router runs the
download program and downloads the updated code to the FLASH.

There are two ways to perform download:

1. Via the control port of the terminal emulator, using XMODEM protocol.

2. Via the TFTP server (LAN or WAN interface), using TFTP protocol.

To start the download process, the user must first erase the old software.

Erase the software via the Software download option in the Device Control
menu, or via the Rescue menu.

To display the rescue menu:

1. Connect to the terminal emulator.

2. Switch on the Internet Access Router and immediately press “R” several

times. The Download Core Version screen appears.

3. Select the desired option and type “yes” to confirm.

D.2 Downloading via XMODEM

Follow the steps below to download XMODEM.

1. Connect to the terminal emulator.

2. Switch on the Internet Access Router and press Enter several times. The

Download program’s Main menu appears.

3. Select option 1 to display the Download Protocol menu.

4. Choose X to select the XMODEM protocol and press Enter. The

XMODEM menu appears.

5. Select the download rate (recommended 115.2 Kbps).
