To upgrade/restore the SpeedTouch™ system software:
1
In a preliminary step, make sure that your SpeedTouch™ is powered off and
that a BOOTP server is readily installed on the computer from which you
intend to perform the system software upgrade.
2
Configure the BOOTP server to use the SpeedTouch™ system software image
file in its reply to BOOTP requests from the SpeedTouch™ you want to
upgrade.
3
To identify the BOOTP requests from the SpeedTouch™, you will need to
specify its MAC address and define an IP range for basic communication
between the BOOTP server and the SpeedTouch™.
4
Use a pencil to press and hold the recessed reset button (B) on the
SpeedTouch™ rear panel:

5
While holding the reset button (B), push in the power button (A) to switch on
the SpeedTouch™. You will notice that the power LED is solid red.
6
Keep holding the reset button for at least twelve seconds until the power LED
turns solid green.
7
Release the reset button as soon as the power LED turned solid green. This
indicates that the SpeedTouch™ entered BOOTP mode and is sending BOOTP
requests.
8
The BOOTP server will reply to the BOOTP requests and will perform the
required operations to send the system software to the SpeedTouch™.
9
After checking whether the received system software is valid for the device,
the SpeedTouch™ will start in normal operational mode to complete the
upgrade.
10
Optionally, you can upload the backup configuration as described in
" System" on page 57.
