Upgrading the firmware
The latest firmware is available on
www.dovado.com/umrfirmware
Warning!
Do not remove the power or the USB modem during
upgrading as this will break your UMR!
There are two ways to upgrade the firmware: you can either upgrade
the UMR via HTTP or via FTP. HTTP is used for conducting the
upgrade process locally from a computer attached to the UMR, whereas
the FTP method is used when the source of the upgrade file is on a
server located in a remote location.
HTTP Method:
It is recommended that you use the first method. Point a web browser
to
www.dovado.com
and download the upgrade file to your computer.
Remember where you store the file. Log in to the configuration pages
from your computer as described in section
Configuring the UMR
. Go
to
Upgrade->Upgrade HTTP.
Click on the
Browse
button and select the
upgrade file you just downloaded, and then click on
Open
. Click on
Start HTTP Upload
to start the upgrade process.
When the upgrade is done, the UMR will automatically restart and a
login button will appear in the web browser. The UMR is ready to use
once it has been restarted.
FTP Method:
If you have an FTP server you have the choice to upgrade the UMR via
FTP. Once the upgrade file is on the FTP server in the root directory,
log in to the configuration pages as described in section Configuring the
UMR. Go to
Upgrade->Upgrade FTP
. Then, type in the IP address of
the FTP server under FTP Server IP and the filename under Filename,
then click on
Start FTP Download
to start the upgrade process. The text
“Restarting…” will appear in your web browser when the upgrade has
finished.
