Figure 5-64 Firmware Upgrade

The page includes the following fields:

Description

Firmware Version

This displays the current firmware version.

Hardware Version

This displays the current hardware version. The hardware version of the

upgrade file must accord with the AP’s current hardware version.

To upgrade the AP's firmware, follow these instructions below:

Step 1. Download a more recent firmware upgrade file from the

Planet

website

Step 2. Type the path and file name of the update file into the File field. Or click the Browse… button to

locate the update file.

Step 3. Click the Upgrade button.

New firmware versions posted on the website of PLANET Technology can be downloaded for

free. There is no need to upgrade the firmware unless the new firmware has a new feature

you want to use. However, when experiencing problems caused by the AP rather than the

configuration, you can try to upgrade the firmware.

When you upgrade the AP's firmware, you may lose its current configurations, so before

upgrading the firmware please write down some of your customized settings to avoid losing

important settings.

Do not turn off the AP or press the Reset button while the firmware is being upgraded;

otherwise, the AP may be damaged.

The AP will reboot after the upgrading has been finished.
