The
WSR-3018
allows you to upgrade its firmware conveniently
from the Configuration Utility. It means that you can obtain
the latest function and take most advantage of your
WSR-3018
.
However, there is some risk when your are upgrading firmware,
such as power failure. If, unfortunately, power failure occurs
during upgrading firmware, the
WSR-3018
may not work anymore.
To protect your investment,
SANEO
provides a second way to
resume the gateway’s original firmware before upgrading, and
keep the gateway working normally.
To resume the firmware:
1.
Connect the gateway to a computer, and then connect
the power cable. Assign a fixed IP address to this
computer within the IP address range of the gateway
.
(See Appendix A for detail instruction.)
2.
Click
Start
at the taskbar and select
Run
.
3.
If you are using Window 2000/XP operating system,
type
cmd
in the Open box and press [Enter]. (For
Windows 98SE/ME, you should type
command
.)
4.
Type
tftp -i [host IP address] put [source]
* in the
pop-up DOS window and press [Enter].
5.
Wait for a few seconds, and the original firmware will
be re-loaded into the gateway. Then, you can enter
the Configuration Utility and use the gateway again
.
* host IP address - the
gateway’s IP address,
such as
192.168.1.254
.
source - the path and
filename of the firmware,
such as
D:\
WSR-3018
.gzh
.
