1. If you don't have TFTP windows version software, please download it first.
2. Next, install the software (the software will step you through the installation).
3. Make sure your PC has an Ethernet connection to the device.
4. Start the TFTP program by pressing the "Start" button, go to Programs\TFTP Suite 95 Pro and
the click on the TFTP Client 32 Executable.
5. Go to "Options" menu and click on "Setup".
6. Under Setup make sure that the Outbound File Path is the correct path to where the file is located
on the PC.
7. The "Truncate long file names" box should not be enabled (checked).
8. Put in the "Host" box the correct IP Address for the device that will be upgraded.
9. The "Port" box should show "69".
10. The "Timeout" box should show "10".
11. The "Blocksize" should be "512".
12. The "Match Files" and "Binary" boxes should both be enabled (checked).
13. The "Local File" and "Remote File" should both be the same and it should be the correct software
upgrade file (i.e. wcgr1001.21s, etc.).
14. Finally, just press "Send" to send the file to the device and complete the upgrade.
15. Now check the progress of the download to see if it was successful. Soon after you send the file,
the LEDs will be flashing cyclically. This indicates that it has accepted the downloading
command and is processing it. Typically, it takes 50 to 60 seconds to finish the upgrade, and the
DSL LAN Extender device will automatically reboot and start operation immediately. If for some
reason the upgrade fails, a "Timeout" message will be displayed on the bottom le ft hand corner of
the TFTP screen.
16. If the LEDs on the DSL LAN Extender device displays a normal pattern after you press "Send"
then either the PC doesn't have a good Ethernet connection to the device or the IP address you
entered is incorrect.
17. If the LEDs kept circulating, then the download has failed in the middle. You have to reboot the
device by powering off and on. If the problem occurred at the earlier stage and the flash ROM has
not been overwritten, then the device will boot as usual; otherwise, both red and green LEDs will
be on steadily, indicating it can't perform a normal boot up and is only waiting for a download.
18. Now, try to perform the upgrade again.
