Follow these steps to update the firmware of your iW3 speaker 
using only your Mac or PC.  Please note that we recommend trying 
option A or B before attempting this method.

1.   Using your computer visit: 

       www.ihomeaudio.com/support/product/iW3

  and  download 

       the latest firmware from the top right corner of the support 
       page. Please be sure to remember the location where you save 
       the file to on your computer.

2.    Verify that your iW3 is successfully connected to your home 
       network.

3.   Open a web browser (we recommend Safari)  and access the 
       iHome Device Management webpage by using Bonjour 
       services or directly typing in the iW3’s IP address. The IP address 
       can be found using iHome Set under network details or by 
       re-initiating the network setup mode on page 10.

Note:

  Make sure that you have enabled Bonjour service in your 

PC. Take Windows XP for example: to enable the service, you can 
click Start->Settings->Control Panel, and double click Adminis-
trative Tools-> Services->Bonjour Service, then click Start 
followed by OK on the pop-up menu.

4.   If everything was done correctly you'll see the page pictured.

5.   Click the "Firmware" tab on the left column and follow the 
       on-screen instructions.

During Firmware Update: 

1.    The top panel LED's will light up in succession to note the progress of the update (see diagram below)
2.    The iW3’s device management web page will indicate progress.  

The iW3 will restart if firmware update is successful. 

Note:

  This process can take 4-5 minutes.
