Upgrade via Web GUI
Open a web browser on PC and enter the IP address of the phone. Then, login with the administrator
username and password. Go to Maintenance
→
Upgrade and Provisioning page, enter the IP address or the
FQDN for the upgrade server in "Firmware Server Path" field and choose to upgrade via TFTP or
HTTP/HTTPS or FTP/FTPS. Update the change by clicking the "Save and apply" button. Then "Reboot" or
power cycle the phone to update the new firmware.
When upgrading starts, the screen will show upgrading progress. When done you will see the phone restart

Firmware upgrading takes around 60 seconds in a controlled LAN or 5-10 minutes over the Internet. We
recommend completing firmware upgrades in a controlled LAN environment whenever possible.
No Local TFTP/FTP/HTTP Servers
For users that would like to use remote upgrading without a local TFTP/FTP/HTTP server, Grandstream
offers a NAT-friendly HTTP server. This enables users to download the latest software upgrades for their
phone via this server. Please refer to the webpage:

Alternatively, users can download a free TFTP, FTP or HTTP server and conduct a local firmware upgrade.
