Fig. 53. TFTP Server.

NOTE: After the dialog box of the TFTP server program appears, be sure to specify the working folder within which the downloaded firmware files reside.

NOTE: Make sure the Accept read requests check box of TFTP Server is selected.

NOTE: The LAN IP address of the SMCWHSG44-G and the IP address of the TFTP server must be in the same IP subnet for TFTP to work.

NOTE: Due to the unreliable nature of wireless media, it's highly recommended that the TFTP server and the to-be-upgraded wireless gateway be connected by Ethernet, and on the same LAN, so that the upgrade process will be smooth.

NOTE: After the firmware is upgraded, be sure to delete the contents of the Web browser cache, so that the Web management pages can be shown correctly.

NOTE: A failed upgrade may corrupt the firmware and make the SMCWHSG44-G unstartable. When this occurs, reset the gateway to defaults by holding down the reset button on the back of the unit for about 10 seconds. If this does not work call for technical support.
