Upgrading the fi rmware
The latest fi rmware is available on
www.dovado.com/4GRfi rmware
Warning!
Do not remove the power or the USB modem during
upgrading as this will break your 4GR!
There are two ways to upgrade the fi rmware: you can either upgrade
the 4GR via HTTP or via FTP. HTTP is used for conducting the
upgrade process locally from a computer attached to the 4GR, whereas
the FTP method is used when the source of the upgrade fi le is on a
server located in a remote location.
HTTP Method:
It is recommended that you use the fi rst method. Point a web browser
to
www.dovado.com
and download the upgrade fi le to your computer.
Remember where you store the fi le. Log in to the confi guration pages
from your computer as described in section
Confi guring the 4GR
. Go to
Upgrade->Upgrade HTTP.
Click on the
Browse
button and select the
upgrade fi le you just downloaded, and then click on
Open
. Click on
Start HTTP Upload
to start the upgrade process.
When the upgrade is done, the 4GR will automatically restart and a
login button will appear in the web browser. The 4GR is ready to use
once it has been restarted.
FTP Method:
If you have an FTP server you have the choice to upgrade the 4GR via
FTP. Once the upgrade fi le is on the FTP server in the root directory,
log in to the confi guration pages as described in section Confi guring
the 4GR. Go to
Upgrade->Upgrade FTP
. Then, type in the IP address of
the FTP server under FTP Server IP and the fi lename under Filename,
then click on
Start FTP Download
to start the upgrade process. The text
“Restarting…” will appear in your web browser when the upgrade has
fi nished.
