version
This facility is available by clicking on the "System" menu followed by "Load / Save" and then the "Upload" menu item on the right. The
firmware of the router can be updated locally via LAN connection and also via remote access. Both upgrade types follow a similar process.
To update the firmware of the embedded cellular WAN module please consult the module upgrade manual available with the respective
upgrade files on our website (www.netcomm-commercial.com.au), in the support section.
Note: In order to perform an update, you must be logged into the router as the root user (see chapter 9.1 Remote Administration for more details).
10.5.1 Local firmware upgrade
The firmware update process has two steps. The first step is to upload and install the system recovery image onto the router.
You can do this by clicking on the browse button and then to navigate to where the recovery image upgrade file is located on your
computer
Once you have selected the system recovery image file to use, click Upload to upload the file. You will then see a progress bar as shown in
the screenshot below. The upload has finished when the status bar reaches 100% and the "Phase:" has changed to Complete.
When the upload has completed, the screen should refresh and list the system recovery file you have just uploaded. Click on the "Install"
link to the right of this.
Once you see "Done" shown as per the screenshot below, you can then boot into the system recovery mode to install the main
system software.
Press and hold the reset button for approximately 5 – 10 seconds until the LEDs on the front of the router start to flash in an ON / OFF
sequence and then release it. The router will now boot into the system recovery mode.
The second step is to upload and install the main system software. To do this, open your web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer/Firefox/Safari)
and navigate to http://192.168.20.1/
