5Press Enter to reboot.

6While the router reboots, hold down the space bar on your keyboard. The Flash Utility screen displays.

7Press the number on your keyboard that corresponds to the protocol you want to use to transfer the firmware upgrade file from your computer to the router.

We recommend using the KERMIT protocol. The system shows that it is ready to use KERMIT.

8Using your terminal emulator software, send the .fla file using KERMIT.

If you are using HyperTerminal, select Transfer Send File, navigate to where the firmware update file is located, select it, and click Open. Select the same Protocol from the drop-down list as you selected from the Flash Utility screen. Click Send.

The file transfers. The system displays messages showing that it is flashing the code and rebooting the router.

!

Caution: Do not interrupt the power when transferring the new firmware.
