A regular update of the firmware is important for a safe operation of the router.
In addition to updating the firmware automatically, you can also update the firmware manually. This Configuration Guide shows you how to update the firmware of your router manually.
The description in this Configuration Guide follows a configuration in the new user interface (web interface) available from icom OS 5.5.
