Firmware Restoration

The Firmware Restoration utility is a rescue tool for an ASUS Pocket Wireless
AP that failed during a previous firmware upload. This utility is available in the
support CD that came with the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP package.
A failed firmware upgrade causes the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP to enter a
failure mode. Use the Firmware Restoration utility to find and upload a new
firmware for the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP.
To restore the ASUS Pocket Wireless AP firmware using the Firmware
Restoration utility:
1. Launch the Firmware
Restoration utility from the
®
Windows desktop by clicking
Start > All Programs > ASUS
Utility > Wireless AP WL-330 >
Firmware Restoration.
2. The Firmware Restoration
window appears.
3. Click the Browse button to locate the firmware file.
4. After the firmware file is selected, click the Upload button to begin
restoration.
The restoration process takes about 3 to 4 minutes. During restoration, the
Power, and Wireless LEDs remain lit, while the Ethernet LED flashes slowly.
If you have problems uploading a firmware while using a network hub, try
connecting your computer directly to the LAN port.
