4 Follow the instructions to download the files into a directory on your computer.
1 In the Wireless Network Tree, select the access point to be upgraded and
click Configure.
2 Under Tools, click Upgrade System.
3 Select the item to upgrade:
To upgrade the Web server file system, click the Configuration System Firmware
radio button.
To upgrade firmware, click the Access Point Firmware radio button.
4 Click Browse, select the upgrade file that you downloaded earlier, and click OK.
If you choose the wrong file, click Clear Entry. The selected file is cleared and you
can browse again for a different file.
5 Click Upgrade.
The upgrade file is copied from your computer to the access point and the access
point restarts using the new upgrade.
You can restore access point settings to the defaults that were set at the factory by
inserting a pointed object (such as the point of a straightened paper clip) into the
reset hole on the front near the RJ-45 connector and holding for five seconds.
Because 3Com 11 Mbps Wireless LAN equipment complies with IEEE 802.11b
standards, it can interoperate with third-party equipment that also complies with
the standards. However, some third party equipment may not support 3Com
enhanced performance features. You may need to turn off the Network Traffic
Accelerator and set the Data Preamble to long to support this equipment on
the network.
