Starting a firmware update

If necessary, you can load updates of the base station firmware onto your phone.
The server on which Siemens makes new firmware versions available for your base station
is set by default. The URL of the Internet server is displayed in the
You should only change this URL under exceptional circumstances (e.g. if requested to do
so due to erroneous behaviour). This address is also used to load provider information from
the Internet. You should therefore make a note of the default URL before you overwrite it.
Otherwise, you will only be able to reactivate the default URL by resetting the base station
back to the factory settings (page 101).
Please note:
– When updating from the Internet, checks are made to ensure that no newer version of the
firmware exists. If this is not the case, the operation is terminated.
– The firmware is only loaded from the Internet if you have not entered a local file in the
firmware file field prior to the update.
