Linksys is dedicated to improving its products and to ensuring that you are always able to obtain the latest features and improve- ments via firmware updates. This section explains how to do this.

Obtaining new firmware with the player connected

If your player is connected to the Internet via a network, obtaining and installing a new firmware update has never been easier.

To check for updates, simply enter the setup menu by press- ing SETUP on your remote control, go to the MISCELLANEOUS SETTINGS section, and select FIRMWARE UPDATE. A message will appear telling you whether a Firmware update is available. If new firmware is available, simply follow the steps On-Screen. The Firmware will automatically download and be written to the KiSS 1600. This step takes a few minutes depending on your connec- tion. A REBOOT message will appear when the update has been installed. After you have restarted your player, you will return to the Quick Setup. Complete the easy steps to start using it again.

Whenever updates are available, they are also posted to the Linksys website in the support section, so that even when your player is not connected to the Internet and you have access to our website from elsewhere, you will still be able to obtain the latest updates
