Use the Firmware Package screen to check your current firmware version and 
upload firmware to the NWA3000-N series AP.
Note: The Web Configurator is the recommended method for uploading firmware. You 
only need to use the command line interface if you need to recover the 
firmware. See the CLI Reference Guide for how to determine if you need to 
recover the firmware and how to recover it.
Find the firmware package at www.zyxel.com in a file that (usually) uses a .bin 
extension. 
The firmware update can take up to five minutes. Do not turn off or 
reset the NWA3000-N series AP while the firmware update is in 
progress!
