Upgrading
Surfer Software
There are three different ways to upgrade the software that makes
the Surfer Modem work.
Your Service Provider may perform an over-the-air upgrade,
where the new software files are transferred wirelessly from the
Base Station to your Modem.
Your Service Provider may provide a downloadable web file or
CD-ROM with software to be installed on your PC to upgrade
the Modem.
Your Service Provider may instruct you to use your Navini
Diagnostics software to upgrade the Modem software load.
The latter two methods are used only if the Modem was not
powered on during the over-the-air upgrade process. The upgrade
is normally transparent to the user; in other words, there should be
no noticeable service interruption. The web or CD upgrade comes
with instructions and takes a minimal amount of time to complete.
Note:
If you use NavDiag to upgrade your Modem software load, the
computer connected to your Modem must already have an IP address. If
your computer does not have an IP address, contact your Service
Provider. If you attempt to upgrade your Modem software through the
NavDiag and the computer does not have an assigned IP address, you
may see one of the following error messages:
