automatically upgrading and the LED should turn green when the upgrade is completed (normally within a
few minutes). See the "LED Indicators" section for more details. .
b. Note: Your MR55 must have an active route to the Internet to check and upgrade its firmware.
2. Verify access point connectivity
a. Use any 802.11 client device to connect to the MR55 and verify proper connectivity using the client's web
browser.

on a laptop, smart phone, or other wireless device.
