Firmware Upgrade - Billion BIPAC 8500 User Manual

Billion BIPAC-8500 / 8520 SHDSL VPN Firewall Bridge / Router

Firmware Upgrade

Your router's "firmware" is the software that allows it to operate and provides all its
functionality. Think of your router as a dedicated computer, and the firmware as the
software it runs. Over time this software may be improved and modified, and your Billion
router allows you to upgrade the software it runs to take advantage of these changes.
Clicking on Browse will allow you to select the new firmware image file you have
downloaded to your PC. Once the correct file is selected, click Upgrade to update the
firmware in your router.
Warning
Chapter 4: Configuration
DO NOT power down the router or interrupt the firmware
upgrading while it is still in process. Improper operation could
damage the router.
