Updating the router's firmware
Siemens always provides you with the latest version of the router firmware. This is available
on the Internet at: www.siemens.com/gigaset
To load the new firmware onto your router you must first download it from the Internet
onto your PC.
Then proceed as follows:
¤
Close down all activities on your local network.
¤
Open the following Web page:
Router Settings
¢
Administration
¢
Load Firmware
.
The version of the firmware currently being used on your router is displayed in the
Current
Firmware Version
line. You can only download firmware with a higher version number from
the PC to the router.
¤
In the
Firmware Update File
field, enter the path name of the file with the firmware you
have downloaded from the Internet. You can also use the
Browse ...
button to navigate
to the file.
¤
Click
Load Firmware
.
The firmware will now be updated.
Please note:
You should
not
use the base station phone during the firmware update. In
particular, do not reset the base station!

¢
Security Log
.
¤
Click
Refresh
to update the display, or
Clear
to delete the log list.
Reboot
You can restart your router if it is not working properly. It should then be ready for use
again.
¤
Open the following Web page:
Router Settings
¢
Administration
¢
Reboot
.
¤
Click
Reboot
.
Please note:
– Do not disconnect the base station from either the mains power supply or the local PC during the
updating procedure. Updating can take several (approx. 3) minutes.
– The base station is automatically restarted after a successful update. The registration page will be
displayed again after the restart.
– The base station phone's firmware is not updated during this firmware update. To update the
firmware update for the base station phone see page 57 or page 105.
Please note:
The reboot can take several minutes (depending on the provider). It can therefore take several min-
utes until you have a connection to the Internet again.
