Upgrade the firmware on the AirBridge

You can visit the NETGEAR support website to determine if new firmware is available
for the AirBridge.
If new firmware is available, download the firmware file to your computer. If needed,
unzip the firmware file. Then, update the AirBridge to the new firmware.
Note: Before you upgrade the firmware, we recommend that you read the firmware
release notes, if available. Although it is highly unlikely, a situation might occur that
requires you to reconfigure the AirBridge after a firmware upgrade.
To upgrade the firmware on the AirBridge:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge.
