4. Optional:Update ALEOS

On occasion, Sierra Wireless releases updates to the firmware 
for your modem. These updates can include new features as 
well as bug fixes. To make sure your modem is at optimal 
performance, it is recommended to Check for Updates and 
Update Now if an update is found.

Note: While checking for ALEOS Firmware updates, the Setup
Wizard uses the Internet connection on your computer to connect to
the Sierra Wireless server. Your Raven is not connected to the
wireless network for this process.
