7 Upgrading the S-gateway firmware
RFI Engineering is keeping a repository with the latest S-gateway software as an Aptitude
repository. You can upgrade your system by giving the following command:
sudo apt-get update [ENTER]
This command doesn't actually install new versions of software. Instead, it updates the package
lists for upgrades for packages that need upgrading, as well as new packages that have just come
to the repositories.
The output of the command should give an output similar to:
Ign:1 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian stretch InRelease
Get:2 http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian stretch Release [118 kB]
Get:3 http://apt.rfi-engineering.com/apt/debian stretch InRelease [1,625 B]

This fetches the latest S-gateway software from RFI Engineering’s servers and installs this on the
gateway. The output should be similar to:
