Upgrade The Software - 2Wire 3800HGV-B User Manual

Upgrade the Software

Gateway field upgrades are typically performed via CMS, which is the gateway remote management system.
The following procedure describes how to perform a local upgrade; however, because the gateway's
configuration information is not retained when performing a local upgrade, upgrading via CMS is the
preferred method. Perform the local upgrade only if you cannot access the broadband link to upgrade via
CMS, or the target release is not published on CMS.
Note:
This procedure assumes that you have been provided with a software image via CD, or
downloaded it from an ftp server.

all gateway information, and cause the gateway to fail.
