Upgrading Firmware From a File<br />

Use this option when you have an updated firmware file that you’ve, for example, downloaded<br />

from the <strong>Sprint</strong> or Sierra Wireless website.<br />

Note: During installation of the update:�<br />

• DO NOT turn off or unplug the device.�<br />

• Your Wi-Fi and Internet connections won’t be available.�<br />

When the installation is complete, you will need to reconnect to Wi-Fi. (See “How Do I Connect to<br />

Wi-Fi?” on page 120).<br />

To upgrade the device firmware from a file:<br />

1. Log in to the home page.<br />

2. Make sure When connected to USB is selected (for Disable Wi-Fi). (See “Disabling Wi-Fi When<br />

Connected Through USB” on page 94.)<br />

3. Make sure your device is connected to the AC charger or computer through the micro-USB<br />

cable.<br />

4. Click Advanced settings ( ).<br />

5. If you want to later confirm that the upgrade was successful, write down the current version<br />

information (shown in Device > About):<br />

� Software version<br />

� Firmware version (in the <strong>3G</strong> Information section)<br />

� Firmware version (in the <strong>4G</strong> Information section)<br />

8. Click the Browse button next to the Update Firmware From File field, and click the firmware<br />

file to upload to the device.<br />

9. Click Update.<br />

Please wait while the upgrade occurs; this may take several minutes. The device LCD shows<br />

the upgrade status. The device will restart (possibly several times).<br />

Once the upgrade is complete, the LCD device shows the usual icons and text (for example,<br />

the device name).<br />

10. Compare the current version information (in Device > About) to the values you wrote down in<br />

step 5 to confirm that the upgrade was successful.<br />

11. If you’ve saved the current configuration, reload it.<br />

� Click the Browse button next to the Import Router Settings field, and click the file you’ve<br />

saved.<br />

� Click Import.<br />
