Firmware Update - Siemens Gigaset WLAN Operating Instructions Manual

Advanced Setup

Firmware update

The firmware is that part of the program in your Gigaset WLAN Repeater that stores its
entire functionality. The firmware is regularly adjusted to new circumstances. It is not
normally necessary to update the firmware, unless you require the addition of new
functionality. You can find this new program on the Internet at www.siemens-
mobile.com and the paths to the appropriate downloads.
ì
So first of all, you should download a new version of the firmware for your Gigaset
WLAN Repeater.
ì
In the Administration menu, select Firmware Update.
ì
Click on the Browse button. From the file selection window, choose the directory
where you saved the downloaded file.
ì
Double-click on the file. The full path to this file is shown in the box to the left of
Browse.
ì
Click on OK. Your Gigaset WLAN Repeater will now be updated to the newest ver-
sion.
Please remember:
Make sure you click on OK only once and do not initiate any other actions until the
Gigaset WLAN Repeater LEDs have stopped flashing. Under no circumstances should
you switch the device off in this state. It might be destroyed.
Once the Gigaset WLAN Repeater LEDs have stopped flashing and the firmware update
is completed, the device is ready for use again.
ì
If you cannot reach the configuration program after the firmware update, switch the
Gigaset WLAN Repeater off and on again by briefly disconnecting the power supply.
If after a few moments you still cannot access the configuration program, use the
reset button to restore your Gigaset WLAN Repeater to the factory settings (see
page 102).
